NON-LINEAR WAVE FORCES ON FLOATING BREAKWATERS [PDF]
Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1982 A non-linear numerical method for calculating wave forces on floating bodies has been developed by Isaacson (1981). The time stepping procedure is programmed for a computer solution, and an incident wave train is time stepped past a fixed two-dimensional rectangular breakwater.

3-d Physical Modelling On Floating - Type Breakwater [PDF]
, 2018 BP Tangguh has port facilities in Bintuni Bay, West Papua, with a water depth of about 6 to 9 m. To secure the port activities and facilities, a floating-type breakwater was proposed.

FLOATING TYRE BREAKWATERS - A CASE HISTORY
Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1982 The problem of achieving a system of coastal protection which is cheap, effective and reliable has stimulated the minds of researchers and innovators for many years. Although floating breakwaters have been written about since the 1840s, interest in them has increased rapidly in recent years.

FLOATING BREAKWATER RESPONSE TO WAVE ACTION
Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1988 The present paper describes a study carried out to investigate floating breakwater behavior in waves. Components of the study include a field survey of floating breakwaters in British Columbia, Canada, the development of a numerical model of breakwater behavior and the experimental testing of a particular breakwater design. The numerical model has been

Hydrodynamic Characteristics of Inverse T-Type Floating Breakwaters
International Journal of Maritime Technology, 2019 Various types of floating breakwaters in different configuration and shapes are used to reduce wave height in coastal areas. The most important parameter in designing breakwaters are their shapes which determines hydrodynamic reaction to incident waves ...
