Abstract
This paper is to investigate both theoretically and experimentally the wave energy dissipation and air-pressure variation of a new type of breakwater having a pressurized air-chamber and two buoyancy tanks. The theoretical models are developed in this paper and they are shown to be in good agreement with experimental values. The new type of breakwater proposed in this paper is pointed out to attenuate the transmitted wave much better than the rectangular-shaped and concave-shaped breakwaters without the air-chamber.
