RIGID BODY MOTION OF A FLOATING BREAKWATER
Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1984 Predictions of the dynamic response of a floating breakwater obtained from a frequency domain analysis are compared with full-scale field measurements. Those parameters prominently affecting accurate response predictions are identified and discussed.

On the Floating Breakwater – a New Arrangement
Coastal Engineering 1986, 1986 A new type of floating breakwater composed of net-tubes and buoy-balls is presented in this paper. A series of model studies have been carried out for several arrangements of this structure. As wave damping effect is concerned, a case that the structure being set vertically is shown to be better than the one being set horizontally, while more than two ...

A variation equation for the wave forcing of floating thin plates [PDF]
, 2000 A variational equation is derived for a floating thin plate subject to wave forcing. This variational equation is derived from the thin plate equations of motion by including the forcing due to the wave through the integral equation derived using the ...

Numerical investigation of floating breakwater movement using SPH method
International Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2011 In this work, the movement pattern of a floating breakwater is numerically analyzed using Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamic (SPH) method as a Lagrangian scheme. At the seaside, the regular incident waves with varying height and period were considered as the
