heal.abstract	In the present paper is investigated whether certain advances in numerical methods can describe the phenomenon of wave transformation from windward to leeward of a coastal structure through flushing culverts. A series of experimental datais presented, where a 2- D physical model has been constructed which can be characterized as a typical part of a rubblemound breakwater,and compared with a nonlinear coupled-mode system of horizontal equations, modelling the evolution of nonlinear water waves in finite depth over a general bottom topography. Numerical results are presented for waves propagating over regions with submerged breakwaters, simulating flushing culverts that are never perfectly filled with water. The discussion focuses on the comparisons between the model and the experimental data in terms of the evolution of the wave profile as well as transmission coefficients.
