Floating breakwater design3/10/2024 Waves have two primary properties, i.e., wavelength and amplitude.Perhaps most such breakwaters are permanent installations formed of rock, concrete, scrapped automobiles and/or ships, or other reasonably economical and durable materials. Breakwaters for the control of wave action in order to prevent damage or destruction of shoreline property and/or environment have been known for a considerable period of time.the present invention relates generally to devices and systems for controlling water movement in maritime environments, and more specifically to a floating breakwater having one or more baffles or skirt walls depending therefrom.E02B3/062- Constructions floating in operational condition, e.g.E02B3/06- Moles Piers Quays Quay walls Groynes Breakwaters Wave dissipating walls Quay equipment.E02B3/04- Structures or apparatus for, or methods of, protecting banks, coasts, or harbours.E02B3/00- Engineering works in connection with control or use of streams, rivers, coasts, or other marine sites Sealings or joints for engineering works in general.E02- HYDRAULIC ENGINEERING FOUNDATIONS SOIL SHIFTING.230000000135 prohibitive effect Effects 0.000 description 1.229910052751 metal Inorganic materials 0.000 description 1.230000021715 photosynthesis, light harvesting Effects 0.000 description 2.XLYOFNOQVPJJNP-UHFFFAOYSA-N water Substances O XLYOFNOQVPJJNP-UHFFFAOYSA-N 0.000 description 24.239000007787 solid Substances 0.000 abstract description 4.230000002238 attenuated effect Effects 0.000 claims description 6.230000005540 biological transmission Effects 0.000 claims description 44.Publication of US20160053454A1 publication Critical patent/US20160053454A1/en Application granted granted Critical Publication of US9340940B2 publication Critical patent/US9340940B2/en Status Active legal-status Critical Current Anticipated expiration legal-status Critical Links Assignors: AL-BANAA, KHALED, DR., NEELAMANI, SUBRAMANIAM, DR.
