Excerpt from Coastal Engineering Studies in Support of Virginia Beach, Virginia, Beach Erosion Control and Hurricane Protection Project, Vol. 1: Physical Model Tests of Irregular Wave Overtopping and Pressure Measurements

This report is the first of a series of three reports on coastal engineering studies conducted by the US Army Engineer Waterways Experiment Station's (cewes's) Coastal Engineering Research Center (cerc) to assist the US Army Engineer District, Norfolk (genao), in the Advanced Engineering and Design of the Virginia Beach, Virginia, Beach Erosion Control and Hurricane Protection Project. The other two reports concern overtopping hydrograph de sign and beach and dune design. The coastal studies were divided into two major sections: seawall design the physical model overtopping and wave-induced pressure measurements and analysis of overtopping for design events) and beach and dune design evaluation numerical simulation of profile response to short-term design events and design of beach fill for long - term stability and maintenance). Figure 1 presents a flowchart of the coastal engineering studies.
