4.2.8 Detached breakwater
Purpose of the example
In this example we shall consider wave transformation and wave-induced
currents around a detached breakwater parallel to the shoreline.
Comprehensive hydrodynamic measurements around a detached breakwa-
ter on a plane beach have recently been reported by Mory and Hamm (1997)
and Hamm et al (1995), see references in Sørensen et al (1998)

. This latter
paper also includes detailed comparisons between Boussinesq model results
and laboratory measurements.
The present example is considered as a prototype of the laboratory
experiments cited above by use of a Froude scaling of 1:40.
Model setup
The size of model area is 1200 m x 1200 m and the bathymetry is shown in
Figure 4.51. It consists of three sections: a 176 m wide horizontal section with
a water depth of 13.2 m, a plane sloping beach of 1:50 between the horizon-
