Wang, H.; Xu, H.; Liu, P.; Duan, J.; Chen, H., and Wang, B., 2015. Experimental study on the dissipation characteristics of curtain-type flexible floating breakwater.

This paper presents the wave dissipation efficacy of the new curtain-type flexible floating breakwater (CFFB) with the implementation of 3D tank tests. It evaluates the influence of the presence of the upper plate, the incident wave height, wave period and other factors on the wave dissipation property of CFFB. The main structure of CFFB is united body which consists of wave dissipation blocks and flexible cables. It has been found that this new CFFB has superior characteristics of hydrodynamic and wave attenuation.
