The interaction of vertical flexible-membrane breakwaters with waves /

The interaction of oblique water waves with tensioned, inextensible, vertical flexible membranes wave barriers is investigated in the context of two-dimensional linear wave-body interaction theory. The vertical membrane is hinged at the sea floor and attached to solid cylindrical buoys at its top,...
