Effects of vertical wall and tetrapod weights on wave overtopping in rubble mound breakwaters under irregular wave conditions
ABSTRACT: Rubble mound breakwaters protect the coastal line against severe erosion caused by wave action. This study examined the performance of different sizes and properties (i.e. height of vertical wall and tetrapod size) of rubble mound breakwaters on reducing the overtopping discharge. The phys...
