Floating breakwater performance
Floating breakwaters provide an alternative form of wave barrier to conventional rubble mound and caisson breakwaters in low to moderate wave climates with relatively short wave periods. This report reviews the literature on floating breakwaters and discusses existing and potential uses of floating breakwaters in Australia.
