Review of recent research and developments on floating breakwaters

TL;DR: A literature review on the research and developments of floating breakwaters is presented in this paper, where the authors classify breakwaters into seven main types, namely, the box-type, the pontoon type, the frame-type and the horizontal plate type.

Wave motion over a submerged breakwater with an upper horizontal porous plate and a lower horizontal solid plate

TL;DR: In this paper, the hydrodynamic performance of a modified two-layer horizontal-plate breakwater is examined by means of the matched eigenfunction expansion method, and a linear analytical solution is developed for the interaction of water waves with the structure.

Numerical simulations of wave propagation over a vegetated platform

TL;DR: In this article, a numerical model for wave propagation over a vegetated platform is established and validated by several existing laboratory experiments, and the simulated results suggest that the platform plays a major role and the vegetation plays a supporting role in reducing wave transmission except for some special cases.

On the Oblique Reflexion and Transmission of Ocean Waves at Shore Fast Sea Ice

TL;DR: In this paper, a mathematical model describing the oblique reflexion and penetration of ocean waves into shore fast sea ice is presented, where all velocity potentials occurring in the open water region to be matched precisely to their counterparts in the ice covered region.

Propagation of water waves past long two-dimensional obstacles

TL;DR: In this paper, an approximate analysis for the propagation of water waves past long obstacles by considering separately the effects of diffraction at each end is presented. But this analysis is restricted to the case of a rectangular obstacle.

Long surface waves incident on a submerged horizontal plate

TL;DR: In this article, a train of surface gravity waves of wavelength λ in a channel of depth H is incident on a horizontal plate of length l that is submerged to a depth c. Under the assumption that both λ and l are large compared with H, the method of matched asymptotic expansions is used to show that the reflexion coefficient R and the transmission coefficient T are given by
