Abstract

A water wave energy-dissipation apparatus for one or more water waves propagating in a direction includes: a support structure at least a portion of which is proximate to a median of the water surface; and a surface inclined at an acute angle relative to the propagation direction, the inclined surface being supported by the support structure located aside of it and being located adjacent the water surface so as to define a substantially open region between the inclined surface and the water surface, the surface having apertures, a surface area of each aperture, Aapert, being at least about two orders of magnitude smaller than a fictional total area of the inclined surface excluding apertures, Afict.
