Abstract

This paper describes some of the results obtained from e. series of model tests to measure wave forces and overtopping in a vertical breakwater located in a surf zone. The aim of the tests was to better design conditions; using submerged structures. With the sections proposed in this study, it is possible to achieve a considerable reduction in wave forcas and overtopping on vertical breakwaters.
