  • Hinged floating breakwater : theory and experiments

    Creator:
    Leach, Patrick A.
    Abstract:
    An analytical model is developed to examine the response and efficiency of a vertical rigid, hinged, floating breakwater. The boundary value problem describing the flow field yields a well-posed Sturm-Liouville problem which is solved by separation of variables for the velocity potentials. The equation of breakwater motion about the breakwater...
