On the Behaviour of Open Filters under Wave Loading
The design of granular open filters under wave and current loading has raised increasing interest in recent years, especially under marine contractors and consultants. Proper guidelines on the design of open filters, which allow an acceptable and predictable loss of base material under wave and current loading, could lead to significant cost and material savings, and to a more practical application of filters in the field. In order to improve the knowledge on the behaviour of granular open filters under wave loading, laboratory experiments have been conducted in the Scheldt flume of Deltares | Delft Hydraulics. This paper summarizes the model set-up, test programme and test results. The results include erosion (transport) rates and filter settling for open filter materials on sand.
