abstract = {The advances in computational fluid dynamics have made numerical modeling a reliable
complementary tool to the traditional physical modeling in the study of the wave overtopping
phenomenon. This paper addresses overtopping on a seawall by combining the numerical models
XBeach (non-hydrostatic and Surfbeat modes) and IH2VOF, and the Mase formulas. This work is
structured in two phases: (i) phase I assesses the performance of numerical models and formulas in
modeling wave run-up and overtopping on a seawall for a solid profile bottom and representative
hydro-morphologic conditions of a study site in the Portuguese west coast; (ii) phase II investigates
the effect of the profile bottom variation in the overtopping phenomenon for extreme maritime
storm field conditions of the study site, considering a solid bottom and a varying sandy bottom.
The results indicate that XBeach underestimates the wave energy, and the frequency and intensity of
the overtopping occurrences predicted by IH2VOF; the numerical models’ run-up and overtopping
discharge predictions are overestimated by the Mase formulas, in simplified and in storm field
conditions; and the variation of the bottom morphology throughout the storm event greatly influences
the XBeach predictions, while the Mase results are mostly influenced by the bottom roughness.},
