Abstract

The paper presents the results of model scale experiments on horizontal interlaced, multi-layer, moored floating pipe breakwater (HIMMFPB). The studies are conducted with breakwater models having five layers, wave steepness, Hi/L (Hi isincident wave height and L is incident wave length) varying from 0.0066 to 0.0464 and relative spacing, S/D (S is the horizontalpacing of pipes and D is diameter of pipe) of three. The forces in the seaward side mooring are measured and analyzed byplotting non-dimensional graphs depicting the variation of force parameterf/
