Numerical Modeling of the Effect of Porosity on Mooring Tensions in a Porous Double-slope Floating Breakwater [PDF]
E3S Web of ConferencesA floating breakwater is a structure used to solve existing problems due to activities around the coast. Floating breakwaters are becoming a more attractive alternative because of their mobility, costeffectiveness in deep coastal waters, and reduced ...

FLEXIBLE POROUS FLOATING BREAKWATERS
Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1968 Observation of the effect of towed rafts of pulpwood on lake and ocean waves led to a systematic investigation at model scale. An empirical equation compatible with wave theory was devised and lines representing this equation together with points representing experimental results are shown for different conditions.

Floating Breakwater Performance Comparison [PDF]
Coastal Engineering 1980, 1980 Wave-transmission and mooring-force data of the Tethered-Float Breakwater and Pole-Tire Breakwater (PT-Breakwater) were compared, and the basic costs (without mooring system) of two equivalent breakwaters determined. It was found that, for short-fetch applications, the PT-Breakwater was an order of magnitude less costly than the Tethered-Float ...

A Model Coupling CFD and DRL: Investigation on Wave Dissipation by Actively Controlled Flat Plate
IEEE Access, 2022 In order to protect structures along the offshore and off the coast, breakwaters are commonly applied to reduce the influence of waves. Flat plate breakwater is studied frequently due to its great performance near the water surface, however, traditional ...
