A three-dimensional numerical model was established based on ANSYS-AQWA (R19.0) software for the purpose of analyzing the hydrodynamic characteristics of a floating breakwater. This study examines three distinct floating breakwaters with different cross-...

In this paper, a yacht project in Tingjiang Town, Mawei, Fujian, is suggested as an example of a barge type breakwater made out of scrap barges. The physical modelling of a two-dimensional flume wave test was carried out on a barge-type breakwater, focus...

Floating breakwaters have recently been generating increasing interest as a vital means to provide shelter and protect the ever-increasing number of structures deployed at sea. Notwithstanding the novel ideas being put forward, to date, floating breakwat...

The Bragg resonance (BR) of a reflection coefficient resulting from the propagation of monochronic waves over periodically submerged breakwater was studied using the non-hydrostatic numerical model SWASH (Simulating WAves till SHore). Bragg resonance occ...

The coastal zone is a fascinating place that comprises the interface between sea and land. This interface, which is both very dynamic and sensitive, has been affected by strong urban and industrial pressures, and an increase in both traffic and recreatio...

Sabellaria spinulosa (Leukhart, 1849) is a suspension feeding polychaeta that lives in tubes consisting of terrigenous particles captured by the worm itself. They form impressive reefs containing millions of worm tubes. In temperate marine areas, under o...

This paper presents the results from a numerical simulation study to investigate wave trapping by a series of trapezoidal porous submerged breakwaters near a vertical breakwater, as well as the seabed response around the vertical breakwater. An integrate...

In this study, the scattering of oblique water waves by multiple variable porous breakwaters near a partially reflecting wall over uneven bottoms are investigated using the eigenfunction matching method (EMM). In the solution procedure, the variable brea...

Submerged and low-crested breakwaters are nearshore barriers with an underwater or slightly emergent crest, designed to reduce the energy of wave attacks and, consequently, to protect the coast from erosion and flooding. Their performance in reducing the...
