| Abstract: | The CLASH database was analyzed for extraction of a set of data having the measured wave heights at both the deep station and the toe of the structure for wave overtopping tests, yielding 1214 data from 29 datasets. Wave heights in front of the toe of the structure were estimated with the Goda formulas and compared with the measured ones. Comparison yielded the overall mean of 1.106 with the standard deviation of 0.155 for the ratio of the estimated to the measured heights, which support the use of the Goda formulas for prediction of nearshore wave heights. Another set of 1215 data having the measured wave heights at the deep station and the wave heights calculated with the SWAN model was also extracted from the CLASH database. A comparative test of the SWAN model using the wave height estimated with the Goda formulas in lieu of the measured height indicated the performance of the SWAN model being similar to that of the Goda formulas, but a tendency of underestimation was noticed in shallow water on a beach of very gentle slope. |
