Abstract
Due to increasing usage of conventional perforated-wall caissons as breakwaters in relatively calm seas around Japan, we conducted a series of model experiments to develop a special perforated caisson that can withstand severe wave attacks in open seas. The caisson consists of multiple slit walls which allow harbor water exchange without increasing wave transmission, while also reducing wave reflection using a small wave chamber width compared to that of a single-slit-wall caisson.
