Abstract:This study aims to develop an efficient and accurate analytical-numerical model to analyze full interaction between seawater waves and cylindrical floating breakwaters in an infinite fluid domain of finite arbitrary water depth. Based on potential flow assumption, a semi-analytical Scaled Boundary Finite Element Method (SBFEM) in a two-dimensional vertical plane has been used to solve governing Laplace equations. The final equation in the scaled boundary coordinate system has been homogenized by locating the s… Show more
