WAVE DISSECTING AND REDIRECTING EQUIPMENT AND SYSTEM TO LIMIT EFFECTS OF TIDE ON COASTAL AREAS

摘要

A method of using one or more first, second and/or third wave dissecting and redirecting system, and optionally one or more open dike system; positioning the one or more first, second and/or third wave dissecting and redirecting system in a first layout at one or more depths on or near an ocean floor at one or more first distances from a coastal area; and optionally positioning the one or more open dike system in a second layout at one or more depths on or near the ocean floor at one or more second distances from the coastal area; reducing a large wave and/or high tide inflow energy to less than or equal to about 50%; and optionally reducing the large wave and/or high tide inflow volume to less than or equal to about 40% while maintaining outflow volume at greater than or equal to about 90%. A first, second and third wave dissecting and redirecting equipment is also disclosed.
