Abstract
Wave run-up is one of the main physical processes which is taken into account in the design of the crest level of sloping coastal structures. Until recently, solely physical model results were used for the crest level design. However, prototype measurements have indicated that scale models underestimate wave run-up. Therefore wave run-up is studied in detail comparing prototype measurements and physical modelling.
