Flexible membrane wave barrier

This report details the derivation of an analytical model for a flexible membrane wave barrier. The wave barrier consists of a thin flexible membrane suspended in the water column by a moored cylindrical buoy on the free surface and fixed to a hinge at the seafloor. The analytical model combines the...
