Performance of Tethered Float Breakwaters in Deep Ocean Waves
This report describes the results of employing the predictive model to investigate performance in deep water with ocean waves. A tethered float breakwater is used throughout the experiment. This enables the researchers to find out: (1) the effects of selected float diameter on breakwater size; (2) number of rows for a given diameter and height reduction requirement; (3) maximum mooring force per unit length; (4) tether length; (5) breakwater beam; (6) and estimates of performance and maximum mooring force under conditions exceeding the design spectrum.
