The new wave overtopping database for coastal structures     

Jentsje W. van der Meer  Hadewych Verhaeghe  Gosse Jan Steendam 《Coastal Engineering》2009

Significant effort has been made to generate a homogeneous database on wave overtopping consisting of more than 10,000 irregular wave overtopping tests from more than 160 independent projects or test series, each described by means of 31 parameters. Many coastal structures, including dikes, rubble mound breakwaters, berm breakwaters, caisson structures and combinations have been considered and have been schematised for inclusion in the database. All these overtopping tests are represented by over 300,000 numbers in the database.  相似文献   

Combined classifier–quantifier model: A 2-phases neural model for prediction of wave overtopping at coastal structures     

Hadewych Verhaeghe  Julien De Rouck  Jentsje van der Meer 《Coastal Engineering》2008

A 2-phases neural prediction method for wave overtopping is developed. The ‘classifier’ predicts whether overtopping occurs or not, i.e. q = 0 or q > 0. If the classifier predicts overtopping q > 0, then the ‘quantifier’ is used to determine the mean overtopping discharge. The overtopping database set up within the EC project CLASH (De Rouck, J., Geeraerts, J., 2005. CLASH Final Report, Full Scientific and Technical Report, Ghent University, Belgium) is used to train the networks of the prediction method.  相似文献   

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
