Reflection and Transmission of Irregular Waves by Multiple-Row Curtainwall-Pile Breakwaters

摘要

In this study, we have expanded the regular wave model proposed by Suh and Ji (2006) to an irregular wave model in order to calculate the reflection and transmission coefficients of multiple-row curtainwall-pile breakwaters. Laboratory experiments have been conducted to verify the proposed mathematical model. The results of the mathematical model have also been compared with the results of the experiments for permeable breakwaters used at the Busan International Cruise Terminal. The results show a concurrence between the mathematical model and the experiments.
