Analysis of wave impact on the elastocoast system

The elastocoast system can be used as an armour layer on revetments. The bonding system exists of a mix of crushed stones and 2-component polyurethane. This bonding system creates bonding forces between the stones and an open (porous) structure can be obtained. Elastocoast is developed by Elastogran GmbH, a BASF subsidiary. The response of an...

Wave impact on asphaltic concrete revetments: Literature review

In the year 1991 the Technical Advisory Commission (TAW-A4) ordered a full scale investigation on wave impacts on an asphaltic concrete revetment. The goal of the experiment was to gain insight into the mechanisms which would lead to failure, cracking of the revetment. Also the behaviour of the revetment after failure (residual strength) was...
