摘要: |
Irregular wave forces on a heavily overtopped thinned-wall vertical current deflection dike were measured during a series of laboratory experiments. The purpose of the experiments was to obtain site-specific engineering values for use in design of a dike located at the mouth of the Mississippi River and to develop generic design guidance for heavily overtopped vertical walls. Predictive equations for the root-mean-squared shoreward- directed peak total force and associated moment arm were developed in terms of the incident wave momentum flux and relative wall height. / Supplementary Notes: Published in the Proceedings of the First International Conference on the Application of Physical Modelling to Port and Coastal Protection, held in Porto, Portugal on 8-10 May 2006. / Availability Note: Product reproduced from digital image.
