Model tests of portable breakwaters for D-day invasion harbors
Description of tests performed in large wave tank, using small scale models of concrete caisson; tests consisted in measuring pressures resulting on caissons due to model waves which reproduced to scale prototype waves of storm intensity and ability of caissons to withstand storm waves without sliding, overturning, or settling.
