Book excerpt: In this report, several level II reliability techniques are discussed and applied to breakwater design. Using these methods, the reliability and reliability index are determined for the dominant performance functions of a breakwater including stone and concrete armor stability, concrete armor structural response, runup, and overflopping. The methods include Taylor series finite difference (TSFD) methods, which are shown to be easily computed using a handheld calculator or spreadsheet. The TSFD method is shown to yield reasonable accuracy for preliminary comparison of various alternatives. An invariant iterative TSFD method and associated FORTRAN program are shown, which provide an improved approximation to the reliability for design and evaluation purposes.

This book was released on 1995 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of the Earth's surface is covered by water. Many aspects of our everyday lives and activities may be affected by water waves in some way. Sometimes, the waves can cause disaster. One of the examples was the tsunami that occurred in the Indian Ocean on 26 December 2004. This indicates how important it is for us to fully understand water waves, in particular the very large ones. One way to do so is to perform numerical simulation based on the nonlinear theory. Considerable research advances have been made in this area over the past decade by developing various numerical methods and applying them to emerging problems: however, until now there has been no comprehensive book to reflect these advances. This unique volume aims to bridge this gap.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Designing rubble-mound breakwaters to withstand the forces of wave action in such a way as to obtain safe and economical structures is difficult. It is necessary in many cases, therefore, to conduct scale-model investigations to determine the optimum design. The purpose of this report is to explain the basis upon which rubble-mound stability models are designed, constructed, and operated, and to provide information from which the accuracy of such models can be appraised. It was concluded that hydraulic scale models can be used to determine the stability of rubble-mound breakwaters, and that the accuracy of the test results will fall within the limits required to design safe and economical prototype structures, if the model is designed and operated correctly and the test conditions are selected judiciously.
