Abstract
The present paper concerns the results and findings of a physical study on wave impacts on vertical caisson breakwaters situated in irregular, multidirectional breaking seas. The study has taken place as a part of the framework programme "Dynamics of Structures" financially supported by the Danish Technical Research Council, during the period of January 97 to July 97. The tests were carried out in 3D wave basin at the Hydraulics and Coastal Engineering Laboratory, Aalborg University.
