Abstract

The linear theory for waves impinging obliquely on vertical thin barriers is extended to evaluate the scattering of irregular waves, described by a TMA directional wave spectrum. A very good agreement is obtained when comparing the spectral approach with experimental data by other authors. The dependence of the transmission and reflection coefficients on the directional spreading function and on the angle of wave incidence is analyzed. Moreover, the transfer function of the pressure on the barrier under normal and oblique incidence wave is evaluated.
