abstract = "The present report describes the hydraulic model tests of Accropode armour layers carried out at the Hydraulics Laboratory at Aalborg University from November 1995 through March 1996. The objective of the model tests was to investigate the hydraulic stability of Accropode armour layers, and to assess the influence of core permeability on the hydraulic stability of Accropodes. Two structures were examined, one with a relatively permeable core and one with a relatively impermeable core. In November/December 1995, Ph.D.-student Marten Christensen carried out the model tests on the structure with permeable core (crushed granite with a gradation of 5-8 mm). The outcome of this study is described in {"}Hydraulic Stability of Single-Layer Dolos and Accropode Armour Layers{"} by Christensen & Burcharth (1995). In January/February 1996, Research Assistant Thomas Jensen carried out a similar study on the structure with impermeable core (sand with a gradation of 2-3 mm). The present report addresses both the tests with coarse core performed by Marten Christensen and the tests with fine core performed by Thomas Jensen.",
