In coastal facility design it is customary to estimate parameters of a design sea state which correspond to a specified return period or annual risk, and then to develop an estimate of the expected largest individual wave height within the sea state. In this paper , the design wave produced by wind generated waves on coastal structures (rubble mound breakwater, groins) will be obtained. With this aim in mind, espression proposed by the Maritime Works Recommendations (1990) are used and applied to the italian location analysed.

Abstract
In coastal facility design it is customary to estimate parameters of a design sea state which correspond to a specified return period or annual risk, and then to develop an estimate of the expected largest individual wave height within the sea state. In this paper , the design wave produced by wind generated waves on coastal structures (rubble mound breakwater, groins) will be obtained. With this aim in mind, espression proposed by the Maritime Works Recommendations (1990) are used and applied to the italian location analysed.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
