2D water-wave interaction with permeable and impermeable slopes: Dimensional analysis and experimental overview
TLDR
In this article, the authors characterize and quantify the prevalent physical processes in the energy transformation of a regular wave train when it interacts with permeable and impermeable breakwaters, and show that the Iribarren number is not a sufficient similarity parameter for the analysis of wave breaking and related flow characteristics on slopes.About:

Parametric modelling of nearshore wave reflection
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple and efficient semi-empirical method is proposed to deal with the issue of wave reflection on nearshore hydrodynamics, which is difficult to simulate by the conventional parametric wave transformation models widely used in coastal engineering practice.

Bulk Wave Dissipation in the Armor Layer of Slope Rock and Cube Armored Breakwaters
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed the interaction of the incident wave train with a mound breakwater and quantified the performance of the structure built with different types and sizes of armor units.

Swash overtopping on plane beaches – reconciling empirical and theoretical scaling laws using the volume flux
TL;DR: In this article, the positive volume flux of the incident waves and the deficit in freeboard are used as scaling parameters for swash over-topping of a truncated plane beach.

Wave Breaker Types on a Smooth and Impermeable 1:10 Slope
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identified the types of wave breaker on a non-overtoppable, smooth and impermeable 1:10 slope under regular waves using the experimental space and the alternate slope similarity parameter.

Advances in Numerical Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes Modelling of Wave-Structure-Seabed Interactions and Scour
TL;DR: A review of the recent advances in the numerical modeling of wave-structure-seabed interactions is presented in this article. But the authors do not discuss the applicability of each numerical approach.

A general expression for the correlation of rates of transfer and other phenomena
Stuart W. Churchill,R. Usagi +1 more
TL;DR: The expression Y = (1 + Zn)1/n where Y and Z are expressed in terms of the solutions for asymptotically large and small values of the independent variable is shown to be remarkably successful in correlating rates of transfer for processes which vary uniformly between these limiting cases as discussed by the authors.

Wave transmission through permeable breakwaters
TL;DR: In this article, an approximate solution to conventional rubble mound breakwater designs is formulated in terms of an equivalent rectangular breakwater with an additional consideration for wave breaking, and experimental and theoretical results are compared and evaluated.
Rock slopes and gravel beaches under wave attack
TL;DR: In this article, the stability of cliff slopes and gravel beaches under wave attack has been investigated with the aid of small and large scale physical models, and the range from "no damage" to statically stable structures up to the profile development of very small (4 mm) shingle under prototype circumstan-

Breaker type classification on three laboratory beaches
TL;DR: Breaker type, for waves on smooth concrete slopes, depends on beach slope m, wave period T, and either deep-water or breaker height, H 0 or Hb as discussed by the authors.
