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 part of the framework programme "Dynamics of Structures" financially supported by the Danish Technical Research Council, during the period of January 97 to December 97. The test were carried out in the 3D wave basin at the Hydraulics and Coastal Engineering Laboratory, Aalborg University.
