David Gallach-Sanchez (UGent) presenteerde de resultaten van schaalmodelonderzoek van golfoverslag bij kustwaterbouwkundige constructies met een steile helling en hoe deze resultaten gebruikt zijn als validatie van een recente golfoverslagformulering.

Introduction ConclusionsUG13 UG14Literature Experiments
There is still a knowledge gap
to be covered
Lack of overtopping data for (very) steep slopes
Very few overtopping data for very small and zero freeboard
No information about differences between
deep water and shallow water overtopping performance
Check on overtopping prediction formulae

Introduction ConclusionsUG13 UG14Literature Experiments
UG13 and UG14 improve
the overtopping knowledge
EurOtop (2007) formula needs an update
Van der Meer & Bruce (2014) formula fits well but
underpredicts overtopping for zero freeboard
Shallow water effects produce an increase
of overtopping for large relative freeboards
Next steps:
Individual wave overtopping volumes of UG13 and UG14
More tests on shallow water conditions
