This study focuses on the prediction of technical efficiency of narrow-crested submerged permeable rubble-mound breakwaters, in terms of wave attenuation. A number of existing formulae for estimating wave transmission coefficient for submerged breakwaters can be found in the literature, whereas in this work further improvement for that estimation has been achieved mainly through physical modelling. A series of 2D experiments under scale were conducted for regular and random waves providing data on wave transmission coefficient and respective wave breaking characteristics. A Boussinesq-type wave model capable of simulating wave propagation for regular waves over porous submerged breakwaters was also used in order to provide additional wave transmission information. Data analysis showed that wave breaking mechanism significantly affects wave energy dissipation and, therefore, wave breaking occurrence and type can be directly linked to wave transmission coefficient for a given structure’s geometry and sea state. The result of this work is the proposal of a set of simple semi-empirical equations for predicting wave transmission coefficient over small profile porous submerged breakwaters in relevance to the parameterization of the expected dominant wave breaking mechanism. |
