Pneumatic and similar breakwaters
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A. Mathematical and Physical Sciences, 1955Abstract The process of calming waves by injecting air bubbles beneath the surface has been known to civil engineers for nearly 50 years. It has been little used for its results have been erratic, its method of working was unknown and its effect could not be predicted.

3D numerical simulation of wave transmission for low-crested and submerged breakwaters
Coastal Engineering, 2019Low-crested and submerged breakwaters, serving as one of the coastal defensive structures, are usually used to dissipate wave energy and help reduce wave impacts on coastal infrastructures and communities especially during extreme weather events, such as

Functional performance of modular porous reef breakwaters
, 2019Reef breakwaters are submerged structures usually made out of rubble mound construction. Wave attenuation could be achieved off-shore by the introduction of such reef breakwaters.

Stability of Composite Breakwaters under Tsunami Attack
, 2019Breakwaters are effective structures for mitigating tsunami-induced damage. However, pieces of the breakwater can be displaced by the turbulent tsunami flow, which undermines the stability...

Converting emergent breakwaters into submerged breakwaters
2011Emergent rubble-mound breakwaters have been one of the main sea-defense structures used in Italy and the EU. Their functionality is related to the dissipation of the incident wave energy so that the transmitted component is within acceptable limits for the safety/stability of a coastal site. However, they can pose some environmental issues e.g.
