Additional information

Much of coastal engineering is still empirical: crude correlations or model testing is required to estimate water overtopping sea-walls in severe storms. This paper describes a numerical wave tank for such problems. The code and manual have been transferred to HR Wallingford, and will be released under the open-source Fluid Earth umbrella once HRW have wrapped it. Based on this paper, Prof. Taylor has been awarded an EPSRC grant EP/K024108/1 to develop a robust statistical framework for run-up and overtopping.
