Wave Transmission by Rectangular Submerged Breakwaters [PDF]
In this paper, we investigate the wave damping mechanism caused by the presence of submerged bars using the Shallow Water Equations (SWEs). We first solve these equations for the single bar case using separation of variables to obtain the analytical solution for the wave elevation over a rectangular bar wave reflector with specific heights and lengths.

Numerical investigation of the three-dimensional velocity fields induced by wave-structure interaction [PDF]
Submerged shore-parallel breakwaters for coastal defence are a good compromise between the need to mitigate the effects of waves on the coast and the ambition to ensure the preservation of the landscape and water quality.

SOLITARY WAVES PASSING OVER SUBMERGED BREAKWATERS
A method is described for the computation of the two-dimensional unsteady motion of a solitary wave passing over submerged breakwaters. Far from the breakwater the fluid is assumed static and the sea bed is level. The fluid motion is assumed to be irrotational, incompressible and inviscid.

Interaction of Submerged Breakwater by a Solitary Wave Using WC-SPH Method
Interaction of a solitary wave and submerged breakwater is studied in a meshless, Lagrangian approach. For this purpose, a two-dimensional smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) code is developed. Furthermore, an extensive set of simulations is conducted.

Characteristics of Water Surface Variation around Double-Breaking Type Artificial Reef [PDF]
A submerged breakwater is one of the coastal structures used to reduce wave energy and coastal erosion. However, a submerged breakwater has a negative aspect in that a strong rip current occurring around an open inlet due to a difference in mean water ...

INFLUENCE OF SUBMERGED BREAKWATER HEAD ON DEFORMATION OF SUBMERGED BREAKWATER BODY
Deformation of submerged breakwater was examined by three-dimensional experiments to investigate theinfluence of the deformation of the head of submerged breakwater on the total damage of the breakwater. The erodedarea at the breakwater heads was larger than that at the breakwater trunk.

Dynamics of sediment transport and erosion-deposition patterns in the locality of a detached low-crested breakwater on a cohesive coast [PDF]
Understanding the dynamics of sediment transport and erosion-deposition patterns in the locality of a coastal structure is vital to evaluating the performance of coastal structures and predicting the changes in coastal dynamics caused by a specific ...

Water waves resonance and its interaction with submerged breakwater
Wave resonance phenomena in a basin can cause enormous damage to the environment. Resonance is caused by external forces coming into the basin with a similar period as the natural period of the basin.
