...Lokesha; Sundar Vallam; Sannasiraj Sannasi Annamalaisamy Submerged breakwaters formed by natural rocks dissipate the incident wave energy. Continuous quarrying of rocks has resulted in its depletion, leading researchers to look for alternate materials for the formation of such barriers. Thus...

... are compared with the results of an impermeable SBW to study the effect of perforations. Submerged breakwaters are generally constructed to cause premature breaking of waves so as to protect its leeside from the severe onslaught of waves. The concept of a SBW is a recently emerging one, on which researchers...
