## Abstract
Abstract OWEC (Overtopping Wave Energy Converter) breakwater is a coastal structure model concept. The concept is to integrate the breakwater and the overtopping wave energy converter. This coastal protection model concept is equipped with a reservoir at the top of the structure to collect water that overflows from the top of the structure (overtopping). Many factors influence the amount of wave overtopping discharge; one of them is the run-up height. The height of wave run-up that occurs is influenced by many factors, one of which is the steepness of the incoming wave. The effect of the wave steepness to the relative wave run-up on OWEC breakwater is investigated experimentally. The study is carried out in wave flume with regular waves. The OWEC breakwater model is simulated with slope variations and freeboard variations. The results of the study show that small wave steepness value produces a large relative wave run-up value and vice versa. For a review of the structure slope, the results showed that the largest relative run-up value was obtained in the largest slope of the variation of the slope studied, namely 1: 2, at all different freeboard heights.
