Influence of Van Gent Parameters on the Overtopping Discharge of a Rubble Mound Breakwater

The choice of the values of the friction parameters may strongly influence the numerical modeling of the interaction between waves and porous media. Here, an assessment of such an influence is carried out using the OpenFOAM solver IhFoamV1 to simulate the response of the Catania harbor breakwater un...
