Wave - Structure Interactions: A Literature Review

Abstract

The purpose of the work is revolved around presenting a literature review applied to wave-structure interactions. During this literature review, three types of breakwaters are presented: Bottom submerged breakwater, submerged plate, and seawalls breakwaters. Further, a numerical method used recently to study wave-structure interactions is presented. Furthermore, a simple analytical model is illustrated. Next, an experimental technique then also is depicted. For more details, this review will focus clearly on submerged bottom breakwater in discussion section for the reason of the importance of this breakwater for many hydrodynamic applications. Finally, valuable remarks will be deducted in the conclusion section.
