Research on Wave and Energy Reduction Performance of Floating Breakwater Based on S-Shaped Runner
Energies, 2022 Aiming at the breeding environment where the construction of marine pastures requires low wind and waves, a floating breakwater (FB) with a Savonius type (referred to as S type) runner with wave absorption and energy reduction function is studied for ...

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.

Experimental investigation of a triple pontoon wave energy converter and breakwater hybrid system
IET Renewable Power Generation, 2021 In this paper, a novel hybrid wave energy converter (WEC)‐floating breakwater system consisting of three floating pontoons with power take‐off (PTO) modules is developed to extract wave energy from heave motion and attenuate waves to protect the coast ...

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 ...
