Crest level assessment of coastal structures — General overview     

Julien De Rouck  Hadewych Verhaeghe  Jimmy Geeraerts 《Coastal Engineering》2009

The present paper gives a brief overview of the CLASH project, making reference to other relevant papers in this issue and elsewhere. Emphasis is put on the two main objectives of the project and how these objectives were realised: development of a generic prediction method for wave overtopping and guidance on possible scale/model effects for wave overtopping.  相似文献   

Erosional equivalences of levees: Steady and intermittent wave overtopping     

R.G. Dean  T.L. Walton 《Ocean Engineering》2010,37(1):104-360

Present criteria for acceptable grass covered levee overtopping are based on average overtopping values but do not include the effect of overtopping duration. This paper applies experimental steady state results for acceptable overtopping to the case of intermittent wave overtopping. Laboratory results consisting of velocities and durations for acceptable land side levee erosion due to steady flows are examined to determine the physical basis for the erosion. Three bases are examined: (1) velocity above a threshold value, (2) shear stress above a threshold value, and (3) work above a threshold value. The work basis provides the best agreement with the data and a threshold work value and a work index representing the summation of the product of work above the threshold and time are developed. The governing equations for flow down the land side of a levee establish that the flows near the land side levee toe will be supercritical. Wave runup is considered to be Rayleigh distributed with the runup above the levee crest serving as a surrogate for overtopping. Two examples illustrating application of the methodology are presented. Example 1 considers three qualities of grass cover: good, average, and poor. The required levee elevations for these three covers differ by 1.8 m. The results for Example 1 are compared with the empirical criteria of 0.1 liters per second per meter (l/s per m), 1.0  l/s per m, and 10.0  l/s per m. It is found that the required crest elevation by the methodology recommended herein for the “poor” cover is only slightly lower than for the criterion for average overtopping of q=10.0  l/s per m but significantly lower than for the overtopping criterion of 1.0 and 0.1 m/s per m. Example 2 considers two durations of the peak surge with the result that the longer duration peak surge requires a levee that is higher by approximately 0.8 m.  相似文献   

Extreme wave run-up and pressure on a vertical seawall     

《Applied Ocean Research》2017

The performance of coastal vertical seawalls in extreme weather events is studied numerically, aiming to provide guidance in designing and reassessing coastal structures with vertical wall. The extreme wave run-up and the pressure on the vertical seawall are investigated extensively. A time-domain higher-order boundary element method (HOBEM) is coupled with a mixed Eulerian-Lagrangian technique as a time marching technique. Focused wave groups are generated by a piston wave-maker in the numerical wave tank using a wave focusing technique for accurately reproducing extreme sea states. An acceleration-potential scheme is used to calculate the transient wave loads. Comparisons with experimental data show that the extended numerical model is able to accurately predict extreme wave run-ups and pressures on a vertical seawall. The effects of the wave spectrum bandwidth, the wall position and the wave nonlinearity on the wave run-up and the maximum wave load on the vertical seawall are investigated by doing parametric studies.  相似文献   

New Relationship for Estimation of Wave Overtopping on Vertical Walls     

ESKANDARI Hojjatollah  KAMALIAN Ulrich Reza 《海洋工程》2017,31(1):48-54

Soft computing tools in the form of combination of multiple nonlinear regression and M5'' model tree were used for estimation of overtopping rate at the vertical coastal structures. For reliable and precise estimation of overtopping rate, the experimental data available in the database CLASH were used. The dimensionless overtopping rate was estimated in terms of conventional dimensionless parameters including the relative crest freeboard R_c/H_s, seabed slope tanθ, deep water wave steepness S_om, surf similarity ξ_om and local relative water depth h_t/H_s. The accuracy of the new model was compared with other existing models and also evaluated with some field measurements. The results indicated that the model presented in this paper is more accurate than other existing models. With statistical parameters, it is shown that the accuracy of predictions in the new model is better than that of other models.  相似文献   

Experimental Study on Mean Overtopping of Sloping Seawall Under Oblique Irregular Waves     

WANG Deng-ting  JU Lie-hong  ZHU Jia-ling  WANG Zhen  SUN Tian-ting  CHEN Wei-qiu 《海洋工程》2017,31(3):350-356

In this paper, domestic and abroad research progresses and related calculation formulae of the mean overtopping discharge are summarized. Through integral physical model experiments, the relation between the wave direction and the overtopping discharge on the top of the sloping dike is focused on and put into analysis and discussion; and a modified formula for mean overtopping discharges under oblique irregular waves is proposed. The study shows that the mean overtopping discharge generally goes down as the relative wave obliquity β increases for a fixed measurement point and the mean overtopping discharge generally increases as the wave steepness H/L decreases (the cycle increases) for a fixed relative wave obliquity.  相似文献   

Usoi Dam Wave Overtopping and Flood Routing in the Bartang and Panj Rivers, Tajikistan     

John C. Risley  Joseph S. Walder  Roger P. Denlinger 《Natural Hazards》2006,38(3):375-390

The Usoi dam was created in the winter of 1911 after an enormous seismogenic rock slide completely blocked the valley of the Bartang River in the Pamir Mountains of southeastern Tajikistan. At present the dam impounds 17 million cubic meters of water in Lake Sarez. Flood volume and discharge estimates were made for several landslide generated floods that could overtop the dam. For landslide volumes of 200, 500, and 1,000 million cubic meters, estimated overtopping flood volumes were 2, 22, and 87 million cubic meters of water, respectively. Estimated peak discharge at the dam for these three flood scenarios were 57,000, 490,000, and 1,580,000 m³/s, based on triangular hydrographs of 70-, 90-, and 110-s durations, respectively. Flood-routing simulations were made for the three landslide-induced overtopping floods over a 530-km reach of the Bartang and Panj Rivers below the Usoi dam. A one-dimensional flow model using a Riemann numerical solution technique was selected for the analysis. For the 87 million cubic meter volume overtopping flood scenario, the peak flows were approximately 1, 100, 800, and 550 m³/s at locations 50, 100, and 150 km downstream of the dam respectively.  相似文献

为研究梯级水库漫坝连溃的风险,并探索贝叶斯网络在水库连溃风险分析中的可行性,通过构建洪水作用下双库连溃的贝叶斯网络模型,并选取四川省大渡河上两相邻梯级水库进行分析,以推求水库漫（溃）坝概率及评估连溃风险。分析过程表明贝叶斯网络方法能直观、简便地分析多风险源共同作用下的水库群连溃风险问题。结果表明,两水库天然洪水漫坝条件概率的数量级均为10-6,洪水引发单库漫坝风险较小;正常蓄水位以上,上游水库溃坝洪水致下游水库漫坝条件概率超0.8,即上游水库溃坝导致水库连溃的风险很大。  相似文献

为解决钱塘江古海塘外倾问题,结合现场试验,分别对气泡混合轻质土（以下称为轻质土）、原状土和页岩陶粒等3种不同填筑材料下古海塘塘背土压力进行了观测,分析了土压力随时间的变化规律,以及土压力的分布规律和合力作用点的位置,并对3种不同填筑材料的减载效果进行了分析。结果表明：土压力呈中间大、两端小,在塘背中部存在着不同程度褶曲的非线性分布;土压力合力作用点在0.42~0.49倍墙高处,较理论计算的合力作用点位置有所上移;采用轻质土作为填料时,其产生的塘背土压力和倾覆力矩较原状土分别减少33.1%和41.4%,是一种有效的古海塘塘背土压力的减载材料。  相似文献   

扭王字块体斜坡堤越浪量的数值研究     

孙大鹏  孙文豪  修富义  刘飞 《海洋工程》2022,40(2):15-25

鉴于《港口与航道水文规范》(JTS145—2015)中缺少扭王字块体斜坡堤越浪量的计算方法,因此开展相关的试验研究对规范发展和工程设计具有重要意义。在基于FLUENT软件的数值模型中,通常采用多孔介质区中的系数C来模拟斜坡上扭王字块体的消浪作用,而确定每种工况系数C的取值是实现数值模拟斜坡堤越浪量的关键。借助物模试验率定出所有工况的系数C,通过单一变量分析,发现C值随波陡、相对水深、相对坡肩宽度及相对块体尺寸的增大而增大,随相对堤顶超高及相对胸墙高度的增大而减小,综合以上影响因素,得出不同坡度下系数C的计算关系式。研究成果不仅丰富了规范内容,还为相关的工程设计提供了参考。  相似文献
