Scaled boundary FEM solution of short-crested wave diffraction by a vertical cylinder
TL;DR: The scaled boundary finite-element method (SBFEM) as mentioned in this paper is a semi-analytical method developed in the elasto-statics and elastosstics areas that has the advantages of combining the finite element method with the boundary element method.

Assessment of random wave pressure on the construction cofferdam for sea-crossing bridges under tropical cyclone
TL;DR: In this paper, a real cofferdam for sea-crossing bridge was used to measure the random wave pressure during Typhoon Dujuan in 2015, and the first order diffraction theory is used to calculate the wave pressure numerically.

A model study of wave action on a cylindrical island
TL;DR: In this article, the heights and phase relationships of non-breaking ocean waves about a cylindrical island were shown by a model study to be in agreement with the corresponding diffraction theory, and the variation of pressure with depth was found to be more rapid than the hyperbolic cosine variation which has been used for forces on piling.
