Description: | Technical Aid Abstract: The Madsen and White (1976) analytical model of wave transmission through permeable breakwaters is combined with a wave transmission by overtopping formula to provide a method of predicting wave transmission coefficients for permeable breakwaters. Comparison of this combined prediction technique with physical model laboratory tests shows that the technique is useful for estimating transmission coefficients for design. A computer program was found the most convenient method of making predictions. The computer program and an example showing program use are included in an Appendix. |
