摘要
Wave-induced runup and wave transmission due to overtopping are important variables in coastal structure design. Many studies have been performed on different types of armor layers, but there is no generalized design guidance available on CORE-LOC(R)) armor layer performance with respect to wave runup and transmission. An experimental study was performed to investigate the runup and transmission response of a CORE-LOC(R) armor layer. Wave runup and transmitted wave heights were measured for a wide range of wave, water level, and structure conditions in order to develop predictive tools for CORE-LOC(R) layer response. A new empirical model to predict runup levels was developed based on an existing model for rock revetments. Further, an analysis of transmission data was conducted to give insight and guidance for design purposes. Reflection coefficients were also analyzed. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.
