Stability of Cubipod Armoured Roundheads in Short Crested Waves

Research output: Contribution to conference without publisher/journalConference abstract for conferenceResearchpeer-review

Abstract

The roundhead is generally the most exposed part of the breakwater. Moreover, in case of rubble mound structures the needed armour size is larger than in the adjacent trunk. Typically units of almost double mass are needed in the roundhead if high density stones or concrete are not used in the head.
