MODELLING OF WAVES AROUND POROUS SUBMERGED BREAKWATERS USING DELFT3D

A reliable assessment of the transmitted waves is an essential part of the breakwaters design. This paper outlines a new approach for modelling the wave field inthe vicinity of porous submerged breakwaters (SPB) using the open source model Delft3D. The implementation of the porous submerged breakwaters (Hereafter SPB) in Delft3D has been elaborated and verified against laboratory measurements.
