This paper provides an in-depth analysis of the erosion at Nørlev Strand located on the Danish west coast. This location suffers from severe erosion; the result of a combined chronic, acute and, at least partially, man-induced erosion. The analysis is done by studying the average climatic conditions in the vicinity, and the effects of storms. Analysis shows an increase in the measured moderate to large wave events and conseque...

Existing active absorption systems do not take into account the spurious waves caused by the segmentation of the wavemaker. Thus, the theoretical estimated performance curves for oblique waves are only valid for infinitely narrow segments. In the present paper, it is demonstrated that by ignoring the spurious waves, an unstable system might be designed for box-mode paddles (piecewise constant segmentation). For vertical hinged...
