2D overtopping and wave impact experiments in shallow foreshore conditions (wave flume Ghent University, 2018) [2D golfoverslag en -impact experimenten voor zeedijken met met ondiepe voorlanden (golfgoot Universiteit Gent, 2018)] Citation Department of Civil Engineering (UGent), Belgium; (2018): 2D golfoverslag en -impact experimenten voor zeedijken met met ondiepe voorlanden (golfgoot Universiteit Gent, 2018). https://marineinfo.org/id/dataset/6357 Contact: Gruwez, Vincent ; Troch, Peter Availability: For more information on the restrictions, use contact information. Description 2D physical experiments, conducted in the wave flume of UGent, focus on wave interactions with low-crested sea dikes fronted by a shallow foreshore and mildly to steeply sloping beaches. Foreshore slopes of 1/20, 1/35, 1/50 and 1/80 were tested for a range of low to high energy wave conditions, a variation in wave steepness and two water levels. The main goal was to obtain a dataset in which the effects of the infragravity waves on the wave-structure interactions (i.e. wave overtopping and impact forces) can be studied. The tests included high spatial resolution surface elevation measurement tests, which is new for beaches including a dike in the inner surf zone. more measurements of surface elevations, overtopping and wave impact forces Scope Themes: Coastal studies (e.g. shores, estuaries), Physical, Physical > Waves - swell Keywords: Infragravity waves, Overtopped wave impact force, Overtopping, Physical experiment, Very shallow foreshore, Wave transformation, ANE, Belgium, Belgian Coast Geographical coverage ANE, Belgium, Belgian Coast [Marine Regions] Contributors Project CREST: Climate Resilient Coast, more Publication Describing this dataset Lynett, P.
