Abstract

Recently, waterfront development and the mean sea level rise due to greenhouse effect have been noticed, and it has become important to develop a practical method to calculate wave run-up height or wave overtopping rate. This paper presents new methods for calculating the wave run-up height on and the wave overtopping rate over a seawall located on a complicated bottom profile of sea coast. The proposed methods were tested both in the laboratory and in the field. The predicted results coincide well with the available data.
