Add to ORKGIn a classical design approach to breakwaters a design wave height is determined, and filled in into a design formula. Some undefined safety is added. In the method using partial safety coefficients (as developed by PIANC [1992] and recently also adopted by the Coastal Engineering Manual of the US Army Corps of Engineers [CEM [2003]) the degree of safety is formalised, and safety factors are given. However, because this method is still rather complicated, a Monte Carlo probabilistic approach allows the designer more flexibility and is also able to use predefined safety values.Hydraulic EngineeringCivil Engineering and Geoscience
