The study of impact of wave returning nose to overtopping discharge at sea-dikes

Abstract

    This article will display the results from physical model with a wave flume on the influence of low wave returning nose crown-walls on each apron. Based on 324 experiments by wave flume we have known that if S =0 the γ_v gets high value and the shape of returning nose contributes strongly to the γ_v, and these results can be used in design of sea dike as referenced.
