ISBN: 9781390406061 - riprap stability scale effects (classic reprint) (1 risultati)

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricacies of riprap stability under monochromatic waves using data collected from extensive small-scale wave tank tests and compares them against large-scale tests. The author highlights the influence of various parameters such as wave height, wave period, and embankment slope on riprap stability. The book further analyzes scale effects and provides insights into the behavior of riprap at different damage levels, erosion, and accretion patterns, and flow regimes. It also explores the significance of wave runup and its implications for riprap design. The findings presented in this book contribute to the understanding of riprap stability and provide valuable guidance for engineers and practitioners involved in coastal structure design and evaluation.
