Abstract
Breakwaters are considered to be one of the most hydraulic constructions in history. The waves hit the stones that created the breakwater initially, and when they are eroded and distributed in the sea, the enhancement arrives to make a breakwater with an equilibrium shape by filling the spaces with additional stones. Although various types of breakwaters were created to defend the shoreline from rock fill or blocks, stepped mound breakwaters were implemented in this work to absorb sea wave energy by proposing a novel equation to estimate the transmission coefficient based on dimensional group following Buckingham theory.Results show that the depth of water, height of incidence wave,height of transmission wave, length of wave, step width, step height, number of steps, and inclination angle of breakwater are employed by MNLR as statistical approach to produce a nonlinear equation with R2 reach to 82%, then this equation validated with R2equal to 81%.
