Abstract

In 2008 the authors investigated the performances of a coastal defense project to be built along the NW coast of Sicily (Italy, Calabrese et al., 2011). The intervention consists of shore parallel breakwaters armored with a relatively new eco-friendly system: ECOPODETM. In that context the idea arose of conducting an exhaustive experimental investigation on the “ hydraulic response “ of these units, including wave run-up, wave overtopping, wave transmission and wave reflection observations. The latter has been performed in 2010 at the LInC Laboratory of University of Naples “Federico II”. In this paper results on wave run-up and reflection are presented and discussed.
