oblique wave attack
Inhalt:
The freeboard design of levees and dams is important for the safety of the structures itself aswell as of the land protected by them. The paper discusses new aspects which came uprecently during the analysis of wave run-up tests with oblique wave attack under the influence ofiongshore current and onshore wind. These tests considered sea stale according to aJONSWAP-spectrum. Results considering oblique wave attack confirm former empiricalinvestigations. Outcomes regarding onshore wind influence differ from those obtained in testswith monochromatic waves. No significant effect on wave run-up in case of a dike parallelcurrent and a perpendicular wave attack was obtained.
