Abstract

This study is an extension of the research on semi-circular breakwater based on Lyu et al. (2020). This time, we focus on the changes in the flow field when waves obliquely interact with the axis of the partially perforated semi-circular breakwater, as well as the nonlinear effects resulting from variations in wave height to some extent. The analytical solution of the flow field is still obtained using the multipole expansion method based on potential flow theory and the method of separation of variables. The analytical solution for oblique incidence is primarily achieved through the cylindrical form of the Bessel equation. Separately considering viscous effects and potential flow, we estimate the impact of wave height variation on the perforated boundary through the quadratic pressure loss term. By employing an iterative solving approach, we comprehensively discuss the influence of wave height, water depth, perforation form, and oblique incidence angle on the flow field and the forces acting on the breakwater.
