Abstract:Experimental and numerical studies were conducted to assess the stability of the breakwater of Fujairah Port on the east coast of the United Arab Emirates against tsunamis. Experiments were conducted on a 1:50 scale and numerical analysis was done with the formulas of tsunami-breakwater interaction. The experimental observations corroborated the numerical results. The breakwater was safe up to 3[Formula: see text]m of tsunami height, but when the tsunami height increased from 3[Formula: see text]m to 6[Formula… Show more
