Hydraulic Stability of the Armor Layer of Overtopped Breakwaters

[EN] Mound breakwaters with significant overtopping rates in depth-limited conditions are common in practice due to social concern about the visual impact of coastal structures and sea level rise due to climatic change. For overtopped mound breakwaters, the highest waves pass over the crest producin...

For overtopped mound breakwaters, the highest waves pass over the crest producing armor damage, not only to the front slope, but also to the crest and the rear slope. To guarantee the breakwater stability, it is necessary to limit the armor damage in the three parts of the structure: Front slope, crest, and rear slope. This paper describes the hydraulic stability of the armor layer of medium and low-crested structures in wave breaking conditions. Small-scale physical model tests were carried out with different relative crest freeboards and three armor units: Rocks, cubes, and Cubipods. The armor damage progression in the front slope, crest, and rear slope was analyzed using the Virtual Net method to consider the heterogeneous packing and porosity evolution along the armor slope. A comparison is provided between the hydraulic stability of the different armors and their relationship with the measured overtopping volumes.This research was funded by Ministerio de Economia y Competitividad and the FondoEuropeo de Desarrollo Regional (FEDER) under grant BIA2015-70436-R.MDPI AGDepartamento de Ingeniería e Infraestructura de los TransportesInstituto del Transporte y TerritorioEscuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería de Caminos, Canales y PuertosGeneralitat ValencianaMinisterio de Economía y EmpresaRepositorio Institucional de la Universitat Politècnica de València Riunet20182018-01-01journal articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501VoRhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://riunet.upv.es/handle/10251/120460reponame:RiuNet.
