Abstract
In this study, we are interested in the stability study and reinforcement of protective structures represented by the breakwater of the port of El Jadida. This study is based on the numerical modeling of the interaction of the swell with an embankment dam. The swell simulation parameters were simulated using the SWAN model [1]. The results of this modeling show that the most constraining swells likely to reach the project site are the swells of 14s and 18s of 50 years and 100 years return period and that the residual swell heights are between 1.63 m and 1.96 m maximum. The redefinition of the project swell based on this numerical modeling makes it possible to resize the components of the protective dike by the Hudson formula [2].
