in this paper the telemac-3d model has been hired to simulate and study the high waves’ interaction with coastal structures. therefore a special arrangement of telemac-3d has been prepared in this study to simulate wave generation, coastal processes, wave set-up and overtopping over coastal structures. experimental data has been used to verify this arrangement of the model. thereafter, the mode...

DHI-Mike Software is one of best softwares describing water wave diffraction in onshore/offshore concepts. Diffraction happens due to obstacles along wave direction and has an important role in designing structures. The scope of this study is to show the relation between Porosity Coefficient and its effects on Diffraction Coefficient (Cd) by means of a suitable and verified numerical model. Por...

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...

Multiple-wave Diffraction Anomalous Fine Structure (MDAFS), a new method combining the X-ray multiple-wave diffraction with diffraction anomalous fine structure (DAFS) technique, provides the long-range order structure information by measuring the multiple-wave diffraction profiles in the vicinity of an absorption edge. The real part of dispersion correction and fine structure function can be o...

The diffraction from a single periodic metallic grating is shown to be significantly modified when a surfaceplasmon polariton wave is excited at the metal-dielectric interface. In particular, vanishing diffraction orders in accordance with scalar diffraction theory, are generated in the presence of the surface wave. This modification is analytically explained, and a plasmonic Bragg law is formu...

Thermal-wave fields have been optically generated and measured, using spatially resolved scanning photopyroelectric detection. Both single laser-beam diffraction profiles and thermal-wave patterns from two laser beams, interfering coherently in a manner analogous to Young's optical-wave experiment, have been produced. The diffraction and interference images have further been shown to be in exce...

A computationally efficient approximate analytical solution based on the classic solution for diffraction about a semi-infinite breakwater, is developed to assess the wave energy shadow down-wave of a single row array of overtopping type wave energy converters approximated as partially transmitting breakwater segments. The approximations associated with the solution are mitigated by a compariso...

This paper deals with a new formulation for the diffraction of a plane wave by a periodic grating. As a simple example, the diffraction of a transverse magnetic wave by a perfectly conductive periodic array of rectangular grooves is discussed. On the basis of a shadow hypothesis such that no diffraction takes place and only the reflection occurs with the reflection coefficient −1 at a low grazi...

The partial differential equation for the wave function in the problem of the diffraction of light by an ultrasonic wave is derived as the result of transformations and related approximations of the electrical field equation itself. It is shown that this way of treating the diffraction problem is equivalent to the generating function method applied to the Raman-Nath system of difference-differe...
