Correlation between Model and Prototype Damage of Dolos Breakwater Armouring
Most breakwater design formulae are based on the results of extensive physical model testing, however there exist a number of basic discrepancies between the behaviour of model and prototype breakwater armour units, and the way in which breakwater damage occurs and is assessed. These discrepancies are often overlooked. This paper intends to highlight the discrepancies, improve understanding of the variables and propose ways to achieve a closer correlation between the interpretation of model and prototype damage of concrete breakwater armouring in general, and of dolos armouring in particular.
