Effectiveness of Floating Breakwater in Special Configurations for Protecting Nearshore Infrastructures

Effectiveness of Floating Breakwater in Special Configurations for Protecting Nearshore Infrastructures

This paper investigates the effectiveness of floating breakwaters consisting of two barges (L-shape), three barges (U-shape), four barges (barge frame), and conventional single floating breakwater. The floating breakwaters of different spatial layouts have sheltered internal gaps/moonpools when comp...
