Wave attenuation of rubble-lined channel walls / by C.T. Bishop.: En13-5/86-101E-PDF

"Reducing wave heights in harbours entrance is often solved by lining channel jetties with broken rock (rip rap). This paper shows that where physical model tests are required to establish effectiveness of the added rip rap, that the size of the model rock is not significant to the interpretation of the measurements. Also, the values of parameters to permit computation of attenuation with greater precision and reliability have been established"-- Management perspective.
