Performance of multilayered porous breakwater under irregular waves having different wave spectrum

Abstract In this present work, the performance of a two‐layered thick porous breakwater of trapezoidal structure is investigated under the action of irregular waves. To investigate the physical problem, the classical linear water wave theory has been taken into consideration. To analyze the effect o...

description Abstract In this present work, the performance of a two‐layered thick porous breakwater of trapezoidal structure is investigated under the action of irregular waves. To investigate the physical problem, the classical linear water wave theory has been taken into consideration. To analyze the effect of irregular waves on the multilayered structure, two unidirectional wave spectra, namely the Pierson–Moskowitz and JONSWAP spectra based on the frequency domains are considered. Three different sea states are taken to analyze the impact of irregular waves on the multilayered porous breakwater. The constant boundary element method is used to handle the aforementioned boundary value problem, which is considered one of the most efficient numerical tools for handling complex structured open sea problems. Several wave characteristics associated with the spectral density functions are demonstrated and analyzed for a variety of structural and spectral parameters. The findings suggest that the adoption of suitable porous material for the construction of these breakwaters can significantly enhance the energy dissipation and thereby minimize the wave force on the structure.
