Abstract
In engineering applications, runup and overtopping rates are often estimated from empirical parameterizations which rely on simplified assumptions of the incident wave conditions and can only be applied to a limited range of cross-shore profiles and simplified structural configurations. This study demonstrates the accuracy of DHI’s MIKE 3 Wave FM (M3WFM) model for runup and overtopping applications by comparison to physical model and prototype measurements. Subsequently the model has been used in more than six projects involving coastal flooding and overtopping investigations with applications in structural design, setback lines and response to climate change.
