Abstract

In the design of mixed type breakwater, the most important factor to be considered is the wave pressure. In particular, the standing wave pressure has a significant effect on the vertical wall breakwater or mixed type breakwater. Many wave pressure formulas were developed and the Goda's formula[1] was very frequently used among them by the coastal engineers due to its simplicity and accuracy. (omitted)
