CFD experiments on a low crested sloping top caisson breakwater. Part 2. Analysis of plume impact
Ocean Engineering(2019)
Abstract
Walkden et al. (2001) showed that severe impact events could be generated at the inner face of a sloping top caisson breakwater, as a consequence of violent wave overtopping. The authors employed the pressure impulse theory proposed by Cooker and Peregrine (1995), to develop a method capable of predicting the magnitude and distribution of loadings at the wall. It was finally recognized air trapped between the overtopping jet and the structure to have a primary role in transferring momentum to the free surface of the protected basin.
