We present direct numerical simulation results of a wave-current boundary layer in a current-dominated flow regime (wave driven to steady current ratio of 0.34) over bumpy walls for hydraulically smooth flow conditions (wave orbital excursion to roughness ratio of 10). The turbulent, wave-current channel flow has a friction Reynolds number of $350$...
Sliding force and punching pressure were contributing factors to widespread breakwater damage caused during the 2011 Great East Japan Tsunami (Takagi and Bricker, 2015), and were dominant factors causing displacement of caissons from the world’s deepest breakwater: the Kamaishi bay-mouth composite tsunami breakwater (Arikawa et al., 2012; Bricker e...
