Book excerpt: Tests of riprap stability under wave attack were conducted at prototype scale in the large wave tank at the U.S. Army Coastal Engineering Research Center (CERC). Wave heights ranging from 1.4 to 6 feet and wave periods ranging from 2.8 to 11.3 seconds, were used. Three embankment slopes, 1 on 1.5, 1 on 3.5, and 1 on 5, were tested. The riprap stone was a diorite placed on the embankments by dumping. The median stone weights of the riprap ranged from 27 to 120 pounds. The study showed that wave period, because of its influence on breaker characteristics, has a significant effect on riprap stability. Wave conditions which produce the lowest riprap stability are predictable and are associated with a collapsing-type breaker.

Book excerpt: This report is based on small-scale tests of riprap stability at a 1:10 (model:prototype) Froude scale, which replicate previous tests conducted in the large wave tank at the Coastal Engineering Research Center (CERC). The large wave tank tests used wave heights which exceeded 5 feet in some instances and can be regarded as protype scale. Scale effects were approximately 20 percent at the zero-damage level, and the small-scale tests gave more conservative estimates of zero-damage wave heights and wave runups than those predicted from prototype test values. However, for severe levels of damage the differences between small scale and prototype were not as great. When profile surveys of severely damaged riprap were compared, the small-scale and the prototype profiles were found to have similar shapes. Wave period was also found to have less influence on the zero-damage wave heights in the small-scale tests than in the prototype tests. The results of these tests were compared with studies conducted by Dai and Kamel (1969), Thomsen, Wohlt, and Harrison (1972), and the Hydraulic Research Station (1975).

Download or read book Wave Period Effect on the Stability of Riprap written by John P. Ahrens and published by . This book was released on 1975 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Test data on the stability of dumped quarry stone riprap to wave attack is presented and analyzed. The tests were conducted in the large two-dimensional wave tank at the Coastal Engineering Research Center (CERC) at near prototype scale. The test data show riprap stability changes with wave period with the lowest stability occurring at a period that creates a collapsing breaker. Methods to predict riprap stability and wave runup on riprap are developed and discussed. (Author).

This book was released on 1976 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the wave tank tests and field performance of a single layer of large armor stone used as a protective overlay on underdesigned riprap. The resistance of the overlay to wave attack was determined by small-scale model and prototype-scale wave tank tests at CERC. A stone overlay concept was successfully used to repair a damaged riprap revetment on Oahe Reservoir, South Dakota (App. A). Design information and an example problem (App. B) are presented to demonstrate application of the overlay concept to both revetment repair and original construction. (Author).
