Roundhead Stability of Berm Breakwaters
Three-dimensional (3D) model tests were carried out for studying the stability of a berm breakwater roundhead and the adjacent trunk section. The present paper describes the influence of the wave incidence angle and wave steepness on the roundhead stability. The test results are described in terms of profile development, recession of the berm, eroded and deposited volumes and the transport of stones during reshaping. Results from analysis of the influence of wave obliquity on profile shape, initiation of longshore transport and longshore transport rate at the trunk section are presented in Alikhani et al (1996).
