Abstract
The wave transformation on a foreshore has been studied experimentally in a wave flume using both regular and irregular waves. Different models for the wave height prediction before and after breaking have been compared taking into account wave shoaling, wave breaking, wave set-up and frictional losses. The uncertainties of these models are quantified.
