Abstract

In this study, two dimensional wave overtopping tests for vertical wall were performed and overtopping formulas were suggested for impulsive and non-impulsive wave conditions. The test results from this study were compared with those from EurOtop(2007). The wave overtopping formulas were derived and suggested considering the recent research trends, while the existing method used the diagram. The wave overtopping formulas have the form of exponential and power functions using non-dimensional variables for wave overtopping and freeboard heights for non-impulsive and impulsive condition, respectively. The wave overtopping formula and effective parameters for inclined superstructure were also suggested. It is analyzed that the locations of inclined superstructure do not have the significant effects on wave overtopping, that is, the wave overtopping rate were almost same for each locations.
