FLOATING BREAKWATER FOR RESERVOIR MARINAS
The concept of multiple use of reservoirs is resulting in the construction of marinas for recreational boating requiring breakwaters that can function for a large range of water levels A typical set of design criteria is an average water depth of 20 to 25 feet, wave lengths from S to 60 feet (wave periods of from 1 to 4 seconds) and wave heights from J

On the Floating Breakwater – a New Arrangement
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 ...

Wave dissipation performance of breakwater [PDF]
This paper conducts a comprehensive review of the wave dissipation performance of various types of breakwaters in marine engineering. Over time, breakwaters have undergone significant evolution, and modern ones are constructed using advanced materials to

FLEXIBLE POROUS FLOATING BREAKWATERS
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]
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
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 ...

ABSTRACT Research on digitalization, sustainability, and firm performance has grown rapidly in recent years, yet the literature remains fragmented across disciplines, concepts, and empirical settings. This study addresses the fragmentation by providing a combined bibliometric and systematic literature review (B‐SLR) of research at the intersection of ...
