Three-Dimensional Analysis of Moored Cylinders Used as Breakwaters

For oblique and normal water waves at various frequencies, the use of moored cylinders as breakwaters is considered numerically using linear three-dimensional analysis. The breakwater can be used by itself for protection of small structures or as a series of cylinders to protect a harbor, shoreline...
