Modelling of waves and currents around submerged breakwaters

Coastal Engineering, 2005
Abstract Recent experimental data collected during the DELOS project are used to validate two approaches for simulating waves and currents in the vicinity of submerged breakwaters. The first approach is a phase-averaged method in which a wave model is used to simulate wave transformation and calculate radiation stresses, while a flow model (2 ...

Wave forces on submerged, alternately submerged, and emerged semicircular breakwaters

Coastal Engineering, 2003
The wave forces acting on semicircular breakwaters are studied by using a numerical model based on a hybrid method of boundary element method (BEM) and finite difference method (FDM) in this paper. Three typical hydrodynamic statuses of submerged, alternately submerged, and emerged conditions of the semicircular breakwater are taken into account.

The damping action of submerged breakwaters

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1951
The results of an experimental investigation on the damping action of submerged rectangular breakwaters are presented. The experimental data also are compared with published theories. A new theory is presented which compares more favorably with the experiments than the previous theories.

Wave diffraction through submerged flexible breakwaters

Ocean Engineering, 1996
This paper presents an analytical, computationally efficient method for the wave reflection and dynamic displacement of a submerged flexible breakwater. The solution of the two-dimensional linearized hydrodynamic problem introduced is based on the eigenfunction expansion technique.

Converting emergent breakwaters into submerged breakwaters

2011
Emergent rubble-mound breakwaters have been one of the main sea-defense structures used in Italy and the EU. Their functionality is related to the dissipation of the incident wave energy so that the transmitted component is within acceptable limits for the safety/stability of a coastal site. However, they can pose some environmental issues e.g.
