Wave load on submerged quarter-circular and semicircular breakwaters under irregular waves

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the characteristics of wave loading on submerged circular-front breakwaters due to irregular waves and found that wave-induced vortices at the structure had a substantial influence on the wave loading.

Wave force on vertically submerged circular thin plate in shallow water

TL;DR: In this paper, a solution of shallow water wave force, using small amplitude linear wave theory on two-dimensional vertically submerged circular thin plates under three different configurations: (1) a surface-piercing circular thin plate, (2) a submerged circular-thin plate, and (3) a bottom-standing circular-flat plate.

Mechanics of nonlinear random wave groups interacting with a vertical wall

TL;DR: In this article, the second-order free surface displacement and velocity potential when a high crest occurs at some fixed point on, or close to, the vertical wall is obtained, and the solution is exact for any water depth, and it is given as a function of the frequency spectrum of the incident waves.

A comparative study of the first and second order theories and Goda's formula for wave-induced pressure on a vertical breakwater with irregular waves

TL;DR: In this paper, the wave pressure intensity at the still water level exerted on a vertical type of breakwater with irregular waves is investigated, and a comparison is made between the first, second-order theories, Goda's formula and the experimental data.

A second order analytical solution of focused wave group interacting with a vertical wall

TL;DR: In this article, a parametric study was made on the interaction between nonlinear focused wave groups and a vertical wall by considering the effects of angles of incidence, wave steepness, focal positions, water depth, frequency bandwidth and the peak lifting factor.

Standing surface waves of finite amplitude

TL;DR: In this article, the surface profile, potential function, pressure and frequency of the motion are determined (to third order) as series in powers of the amplitude divided by the wavelength, and graphs of the surface profiles and of the pressure as a function of depth are included.

Third-order approximation to short-crested waves

TL;DR: In this paper, the variables of a short-crested wave system are derived to a third-order approximation by a perturbation method, under the assumption of full reflexion, uniform finite depth and an inviscid incompressible fluid.

Wave Forces on Vertical Walls

TL;DR: In this article, the authors give a model for the force exerted on vertical walls by the reflection of water waves with an arbitrary angle of incidence, and show that the maximum force per unit length can be caused by obliquely-incident waves rather than standing waves.
