Wave Diffraction Through a Perforated Barrier of Non-Zero Thickness

Experimental Studies of Wave Transmission through Single Perforated Sheets and Upright Perforated Wave Filters

Wave Energy Dissipation Using Perforated and Non Perforated Piles

The indispensable vital structure in any harbor is a breakwater in order to make available calm water region inshore. Pile breakwater can be employed as a small coastal protection structure where tranquility required is low. This study is concerned with CFD study on the performance of perforated hollow pile to dissipate wave energy and the novelty of this investigation is the role of perforatio...

A Mathematical Model for Analysis of Upright Perforated Wave Absorbers

On the basis of the continuity equation and the Bernoulli equation in the steady form, a differential equation is developed to evaluate the successive water levels within compartments of an upright perforated wave absorber. Then the initial and boundary conditions are introduced and the differential equation is solved as an initial value problem. Finally the reflection coefficient from the wave...

NUMERICAL MODELING OF DIFFRACTION THROUGH A BREAKWATER GAP

Wave diffraction is a very important phenomenon in marine engineering and several models have been developed for its simulation. The new version of SWAN, a third generation spectral model, includes an approximation to wave diffraction. The approximation is based on the mild-slope equation for refraction and diffraction, omitting phase information. The objective this paper is to evaluate the per...

Theoretical and Experimental Studies of Upright Perforated Wave Filters

Liu et al. (1987) proposed a theoretical solution for scattering of waves through a permeable dissipation region. On the basis of bulk dissipation of the incident wave energy, this method is extended to evaluate the reflection and transmission coefficients of waves through a wave filter composed of rows of perforated sheets aligned normally to the direction of wave propagation. The results of t...
