Wave Transmission Past A Submerged Semicircular Breakwater: A Numerical Approach

Breakwaters are coastal structures that act as protection for harbours and shorelines from coastal erosion due to the impact of waves. Semicircular breakwaters have been developed to improve the hydrodynamic performance of the structure. Gupta (2018) carried out physical modelling to investigate...
