A Solution to Measure Wave Overtopping on an Offshore Emerged Island
摘要
This paper describes the wave overtopping measurement on an offshore emerged island in Vietnam. This overtopping discharge measurement is very important in the analysis, evaluation, and design works on offshore emerged island, where the terrain is complex, has a steep front shelf, and cannot be applied to other applications formula in the standard to calculate the overtopping discharges. Overtopping discharge is measured using overtopping flume and overtopping tank assembled of wood and tarpaulin, which are easy to find and easy to carry. There are very few papers that publish solutions to measure overtopping in offshore emerged islands. Therefore, the results of the article are a set of data of overtopping discharge, wave height in front of the dyke, and manual measurement of overtopping waves on offshore emerged islands, which is a reference for designers, surveyors, and researchers.
