Coastal Engineering 1988, 1988 Two and three dimensional laboratory studies have been carried out on the stability of a berm breakwater concept. The study has to some extent been general and to some extent been connected to a project study of the stability of a berm breakwater for the fishing port of Arviksand, Norway.

International Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2020 A numerical model is established to investigate the run-up of a solitary wave after propagating over a triangular saw-tooth-shaped submerged breakwater. A rectangular-shaped submerged breakwater is simulated for comparison. Several factors, including the

Time-domain hydrodynamic analysis of pontoon-plate floating breakwater
Water Science and Engineering, 2012 The hydrodynamic behaviors of a floating breakwater consisting of a rectangular pontoon and horizontal plates are studied theoretically. The fluid motion is idealized as two-dimensional linear potential flow.

Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1968 The breakwater consists of a floating slab of breadth comparable to the length of the wave to be obstructed. Performance is improved by various arrangements of slots and mass-damping. The breakwater acts primarily by inhibiting the vertical component of orbital motion; there is a secondary action of energy dissipation by wave-breaking and eddy-making ...

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 Based on the assumption of linear potential flow theory, the scattering problem of a composite breakwater placed in front of an impermeable back wall is theoretically investigated. The velocity potential in each subregion is found using the eigenfunction

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 Submerged breakwater, as an important marine engineering structure, can effectively absorb wave energy and is widely used in marine engineering protection. As a new type of breakwater, porous medium breakwater has a certain influence on wave propagation.

A Field Experiment on Wave Forces on an Energy-Absorbing Breakwater
Energies, 2020 The U-OWC is a caisson breakwater embodying a device for wave energy absorption. Under the wave action, the pressure acting on the upper opening of the vertical duct fluctuates, producing a water discharge alternatively entering/exiting the plant through
