This paper describes 2-D numerical simulations of velocity and pressure fields generated by
non-breaking waves on a vertical breakwater with a recurved parapet wall. The influence of …

Coastal defence structures are playing a vital role in protecting coastal communities from
extreme climatic conditions and flooding. With climate change and sea-level rise in the next …

This paper will discuss the variations in wave loads on a vertical seawall structure due to the
addition of parapets. A 1: 8 model scale experiments on a wall with parapets will be carried …

The model test investigates the temporal and spatial distribution characteristics of the
slamming effects in the stepped moonpool under wave excitation with ship forward speed …

Tsunamis pose a significant threat to coastal engineering. A comprehensive physical
experiment was conducted to examine the effect of air chambers on vertical structures with …

This paper describes a method of determining the reaction forces of a vertical structure with
an overhang to impulsive wave impacts. The aim is to develop a method to design a …

A hybrid structure of pile-supported wharf connecting with pile breakwater is tested in a
flume with a scale factor of 1: 30. Based on generating regular and irregular waves and …

In this paper, an extended numerical analysis of the “confined-crest impact”(hereinafter
referred as “C–CI”), induced by non-breaking waves on recurved parapet walls, is presented …

This study investigates the variation of wave impact loads with the geometrical
configurations of recurve retrofits mounted on the crest of a vertical seawall. Physical model …

Four tests were conducted to investigate the wave attenuation and dike stability
effectiveness of a basic dike, a dike that combined with the submerged breakwater, with …
