Stability of high density cube armoured breakwaters

The performance of high-density cubes in the armor layer of a breakwater was investigated through an experimental study. For this purpose, two different cross-sections, one with a conventional cross-section and one with a berm, were modelled in a wave flume. A total of ten tests were performed for both cross-sections. Different concrete...

On the toe stability of rubble mound structures

Toe design is an important task for coastal engineers as it ensures the stability of the main armor layer and prevents scour in front of the armor slope. Several laboratory experiments have been conducted to investigate the toe stability using different testing approaches, i.e. damage due to a single test condition and cumulative damage due...
