Armor Damage of Overtopped Mound Breakwaters in Depth-Limited Breaking Wave Conditions

Mares-Nasarre, Patricia; Argente, Gloria; GÓMEZ-MARTÍN, M. ESTHER; Medina, Josep R. (MDPI AG, 2021-09)

Calibration of overtopping roughness factors for concrete armor units in non-breaking conditions using the CLASH database

Molines, Jorge; Medina Folgado, Josep Ramon (Elsevier, 2015)

The roughness factor (γf) is a parameter used in overtopping estimators to account for the effects of armor unit geometry, the number of layers in the armor and other structural characteristics. Different values of γf for ...
Crown Wall Stability of Cube and Cubipod Armored Mound Breakwaters

Molines, Jorge; Medina, Josep R. (Bundesanstalt für Wasserbau, 2019-10-02)

[EN] Mound breakwaters usually have a concrete crown wall to reduce the amount of quarry material and to improve accessibility. Popular methods to design crown walls consider the same value of the horizontal pressure in ...

Estimations of wave forces on crown walls based on wave overtopping rates

Molines, Jorge; Herrera Gamboa, María Piedad; Medina, Josep R. (Elsevier, 2018)

[EN] In this study, seven input variables are used to estimate wave forces on the crown wall, and explanatory variables are ranked using neural network techniques. 274 small-scale 2D tests, including both wave overtopping ...
Explicit Neural Network-derived formula for overtopping flow on mound breakwaters in depth-limited breaking wave conditions

Mares-Nasarre, Patricia; Molines, Jorge; GÓMEZ-MARTÍN, M. ESTHER; Medina, Josep R. (Elsevier, 2021-03)

[EN] Sea level rise due to climate change, as well as social pressure to decrease the visual impact of coastal structures, have led to reduced crest freeboards, and this increases the overtopping hazard. In previous studies, ...
Explicit wave overtopping formula for mound breakwaters with crown walls using CLASH neural network-derived data

Molines, Jorge; Medina, Josep R. (American Society of Civil Engineers, 2016)

Based on the Crest Level Assessment of Coastal Structures (CLASH) Neural Network Overtopping prediction method, a new 16-parameter overtopping estimator (Q6) was developed for conventional mound breakwaters with crown ...
Hydraulic stability of cube-armored mound breakwaters in depth-limited breaking wave conditions

Mares-Nasarre, Patricia; Molines, Jorge; GÓMEZ-MARTÍN, M. ESTHER; Medina, Josep R. (Elsevier, 2022-09-01)

[EN] Armor erosion due to wave attack has been studied intensively since it is considered the main failure mode of mound breakwaters. Cube-armored mound breakwaters in depth-limited breaking wave conditions are common in ...
Hydraulic stability of nominal and sacrificial toe berms for mound breakwaters on steep sea bottoms

Herrera Gamboa, María Piedad; Molines, Jorge; Medina, Josep R. (Elsevier, 2016)

[EN] When mound breakwaters are placed on steep sea bottoms in combination with very shallow waters, the design of the toe berm becomes a relevant issue. Toe berms built close to the water surface on a steep sea bottom ...
Individual wave overtopping volumes on mound breakwaters in breaking wave conditions and gentle sea bottoms

Mares-Nasarre, Patricia; Molines, Jorge; GÓMEZ-MARTÍN, M. ESTHER; Medina, Josep R. (Elsevier, 2020-08)

[EN] Mound breakwaters are usually designed to limit the mean wave overtopping rate (q) or the maximum individual wave overtopping volume (V-max). However, rarely do studies focus on wave overtopping volumes on breakwaters ...
Influence of Mild Bottom Slopes on the Overtopping Flow over Mound Breakwaters under Depth-Limited Breaking Wave Conditions

Mares-Nasarre, Patricia; GÓMEZ-MARTÍN, M. ESTHER; Medina, Josep R. (MDPI AG, 2020-01)
