Shoreline retreat and free overhang in overdeveloped tombolo behind detached breakwaters: empirical, semi-analytical and numerical approach

Multiple detached breakwaters with narrow gaps have been constructed to dissipate wave energy to a beach and to promote salient or tombolo in the lee for shore protection since the 1960s. Although geometric parameters (breakwater length and distance offshore) are operative for the preliminary design...
