Reduction of Wave Overtopping and Force Impact at Harbor Quays Due to Very Oblique Waves

Reduction of Wave Overtopping and Force Impact at Harbor Quays Due to Very Oblique Waves

Physical model experiments were conducted in a wave tank at Flanders Hydraulics Research, Antwerp, Belgium, to characterize the wave overtopping and impact force on vertical quay walls and sloping sea dike (1:2.5) under very oblique wave attack (angle between 45° and 80°). This study was triggered b...
