Numerical Analysis on Tsunamis Overtopping Caisson Breakwaters and the Stability of Armor Units
Tsunami overtopping a caisson breakwater is reproduced by a numerical model to evaluate the stability of armor units covering the harbor-side of the rubble mound. This model solves the overflow jet above the water surface and the harbor-side flow field separately to avoid entrainment of excessive bubbles. Using this model, the applicability of the Isbash formula for the stability of armor stones and concrete blocks against tsunami overflow is examined. The relationship between the Isbash number and the degree of movement of armor stones is clarified. In the case of concrete blocks, the Isbash number of the stability limitation varied with the thickness of the overflow jet. The Isbash formula by CERC tends to overestimate the effect of slope angle, when applied to concrete blocks. A stability prediction method for armor blocks based on fluid forces acting on each armor block is presented as well.
