Wave tank simulations of overtopping over a sea dike with very shallow foreshore conditions [Golftanksimulaties van overslag over een zeedijk met zeer ondiepe vooroeveromstandigheden] Citation Flanders Hydraulics Research (2019). Wave tank simulations of overtopping over a sea dike with very shallow foreshore conditions [DATA]. https://marineinfo.org/doc/dataset/6358 Contact: Verwaest, Toon ; Availability: ![]() Description Wave tank tests conducted at Flanders Hydraulics Research in 2018 as part of the CREST project. Tests are overtopping simulations on a configuration of a sea dike and a very shallow foreshore at a scale of 1/50. Wave boundary conditions with directional spreading and oblique incidence were simulated. As a reference, longshore waves with perpendicular incidence were also simulated. On the one hand volumes overtopping the crest were measured, on the other hand the impact on a vertical wall at a distance from the crest was measured. Simulations without a dike were also performed to simulate wave propagation over the very shallow foreshore without reflection against a sea dike.
