TL;DR: In this article, a series of experiments were undertaken to build an empirical formula of the wave transmission coefficient and the results showed that the Pile-rock breakwater structure works effectively in the case of emergence when the wave reflection coefficient is quite large (i.e. Kr of 0.45-0.6).

TL;DR: In this article , a new structure of Hollow Triangle Breakwaters (HTB) is introduced to protect the coastline, stimulate sedimentation and restore mangrove forests along the Mekong Delta coastline.

TL;DR: In this paper , three classes of breakwaters are tested in the laboratory: Hollow Triangle breakwaters, pile-rock breakwaters and semi-circular breakwaters (SBW) using physical models.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors evaluated the ability of hollow and porous types of breakwaters to exchange suspended sediment on the deltaic coast considering the hydrodynamic conditions of the Mekong Delta and found that fine sand and mud silt deposition on the shoreline of the breakwater alignment were significantly reduced in the case of the perforated hollow breakwaters.

TL;DR: In this article , experimental and numerical modeling was performed to investigate the effect of breakwater gaps on bedload sediment transport and nearshore bed morphology, and the gap width across various hydrodynamic conditions was found to have a significant impact on bed load sediment transport.
