STABILITY OF HIGH DENSITY CUBES ON BREAKWATER ROUNDHEADS

Due to the three-dimensional flow field formed by the diffraction and refraction effects of waves in breakwaters, the stability of the armour layer of roundheads is more critical than the trunk sections. For this reason, roundheads require heavier units or a gentler slope. In this research, the stability of breakwater roundheads consisting of high-density cube blocks in a single layer under the influence of wind and swell waves was examined.

Abstract

Due to the three-dimensional flow field formed by the diffraction and refraction effects of waves in breakwaters, the stability of the armour layer of roundheads is more critical than the trunk sections. For this reason, roundheads require heavier units or a gentler slope. In this research, the stability of breakwater roundheads consisting of high-density cube blocks in a single layer under the influence of wind and swell waves was examined.
