Abstract
The present paper discusses the effect of mass density on stability of rubble mound breakwaters. A short literature review of existing knowledge is give to establish a background for the ongoing research. Furthermore, several model tests are described in which the stability of rubble mound breakwaters with armour stones of different densities are investigated. The results from the model test are discussed with respect to application and further research.
