Wave overtopping and coastal structure analysis occupy a central role in ensuring the resilience of shorelines against the increasing threats of climate-induced sea-level rise and extreme weather ...

A process-based model is employed to study the scour pattern due to wave overtopping in front of vertical breakwater. The flow field was computed using the RANS equations with a k-ε turbulence ...

Aging infrastructure and rising water levels are increasing the number of dams at risk of overtopping, threatening their structural integrity and potentially putting downstream communities in peril.
