Abstract

Dispositif destiné à réduire la hauteur de vagues. Le dispositif comprend un ou plusieurs récipients flexibles aptes à être remplis partiellement ou entièrement d'un liquide ainsi que des moyens permettant de relier les récipients les uns aux autres côte à côte et des moyens pour rendre les récipients flottables, les parois supérieure et inférieure de chaque récipient étant tirées l'une vers l'autre en un certain nombre de points de liaison en forme de poches de façon à former une structure de surface à poches, permettant ainsi d'opposer une résistance au mouvement du liquide à l'intérieur de chaque récipient. L'invention est applicable à la protection de travaux et ouvrages en pleine mer ainsi que par exemple d'établissements piscicoles ou de ports de plaisance.Device intended to reduce the height of waves. The device comprises one or more flexible containers capable of being partially or entirely filled with a liquid as well as means for connecting the containers to each other side by side and means for making the containers floatable, the upper and lower walls of each container being drawn towards each other at a number of pocket-shaped connection points so as to form a pocket surface structure, thereby making it possible to resist the movement of the liquid within the container. each container. The invention is applicable to the protection of works and structures in the open sea as well as, for example, fish farms or marinas.
