  2. Hudson's equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hudson's_equation

    Hudson's equation, also known as Hudson formula, is an equation used by coastal engineers to calculate the minimum size of riprap (armourstone) required to provide satisfactory stability characteristics for rubble structures such as breakwaters under attack from storm wave conditions.

  3. Van der Meer formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_der_Meer_formula

    In this formula: H s = Significant wave height at the toe of the construction Δ = relative density of the stone (= (ρ s-ρ w)/ρ w) where ρ s is the density of the stone and ρ w is the density of the water d n50 = nominal stone diameter α = breakwater slope P = notional permeability S = Damage number N = number of waves in the storm

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iribarren_number

    The Iribarren number which is often denoted as Ir or ξ – is defined as: [5] = ⁡ /, with =, where ξ is the Iribarren number, is the angle of the seaward slope of a structure, H is the wave height, L 0 is the deep-water wavelength, T is the period and g is the gravitational acceleration.

  6. Wave overtopping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_overtopping

    Wave overtopping is the time-averaged amount of water that is discharged (in liters per second) per structure length (in meters) by waves over a structure such as a breakwater, revetment or dike which has a crest height above still water level. When waves break over a dike, it causes water to flow onto the land behind it.
