SUBMERGED CONCRETE CAISSON BREAKWATER CONSTRUCTION
After numerical and physical modeling, and alternate analysis, the proposed solution to mitigate wave energies entering Kahului Harbor, Maui was to construct a submerged concrete caisson breakwater, just outside the harbor that would economically improve the harbor tranquility and be environmentally friendly. One of the major challenges of this project

Influence of Submerged Breakwater on Longshore Currents
Submerged breakwater is a kind of commonly used maritime sheltering structures, so it is necessary to accurately grasp the hydrodynamic characteristics before and after the submerged breakwater. Based on the longshore current experiment in harbor, taking the trapezoid submerged breakwater as the research object, this paper analyzes the influence of ...

Performance Characteristics of a Submerged Semicircular Breakwater Exposed to Regular Waves: An Experimental Study [PDF]
Many mangrove replanting programs fail due to the drifting of the mangrove sapling by waves and coastal currents soon after the replanting. Hence, adequate wave protection for the mangrove planting site is required to enhance the survivability rates of ...

Experimental and Numerical Study on the Hydrodynamic Efficiency of Permeable Caissons Barriers
Breakwaters are constructed to protect beaches and ports from high storms and waves. By bringing calm to the port, breakwaters also increase ship safety and operation. This paper presents a study of the breakwater partially submerged in water, consisting
