Spatial Coherence of Impact Pressures at a Vertical Breakwater in Multidirectional Seas: set-up of the experiment and report on the activities

The programme "Training and Mobility of Researchers" (TMR) within the 4^th Framework Programme of the European Comission is divided into Three independent activities: research networks, access to large-scale facilities and training through research. The activity 2 "Access to Large-Scale Facilities" (LSF) includes the possibility for researchers to work at selected European large-scale facilities. Within this activity the project "Spatial coherence of impact pressures at a vertical breakwater in multidirectional seas" was founded and could therefore be performed by the University of Bologna (DISTART Idraulica, Italy [UoB]), Aalborg University (Hydraulics and Coastal Engineering Laboratory, Denmark [AU]) and Technical University of Braunschweig (Leichtweiss-Institut, Germany [LWI]).
