AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY
ON DETACHED BREAKWATERS AND ARTIFICIAL HEADLANDS
by
John R. Lesntk
I. INTRODUCTION
In recent years there has been a growing awareness of the potential
use of detached breakwaters for shore stabilization. However, lack of
design experience with these structures has hindered their widespread
application in beach erosion projects. Engineers are often uncertain
about how to approach the design problem because of the many unknowns
involved. In addition, there are few existing structures that can be
studied to provide prototype data.
This annotated bibliography is presented to assist in the develop-
ment of reliable design procedures for detached breakwaters. The refer-
ences deal with topics which can be usefully applied to the design problem
although many are not limited solely to the subject of detached break-
waters. For instance, the wave dissipation characteristics of submerged
breakwaters are discussed in several papers. An understanding of these
characteristics would be necessary for the design of some detached break-
waters. Papers on wave diffraction, reflection, transmission, and over-
topping are also included. The bibliography is not comprehensive in
these areas but an attempt has been made to identify some significant
works with potential applications.
Several papers describe the use of detached breakwaters as sand traps
for navigation projects. Although this use does not fall within the
realm of shore protection, these structures do affect the coastal pro-
cesses in the same way as shore protection breakwaters.
In compiling this bibliography a decision had to be made concerning
exactly what constitutes a detached breakwater. The usual shore-parallel
structures obviously fit this category but there are other types of con-
struction which could be included. Among these are T-groins where the
length of breakwater section is much longer than the groin, submerged
Sills of timber, steel-sheet piling, rubble or other materials, and arti-
ficial headlands used to form crenulate-shaped bays.
The bibliography includes several foreign language papers that have
been independently translated. These translations are in the U.S. Army
Coastal Engineering Research Center (CERC) library; however, the accuracy
of the translations has not been verified. Some foreign language papers
were not translated but keywords were deduced from identifiable figures,
photos, and illustrations within the text.
Copies of some references were not reviewed but were included in the
bibliography because of their titles. Abstracts and keywords are not
given for these publications.

This report discusses the estimated shoreline deformation of sand
beaches by the variation of longshore current velocity when an offshore
breakwater is constructed. The developing and stabilized forms of tom-
bolos resulting from the construction of an offshore breakwater are ex-
perimentally analyzed in terms of the influence of the breakwater length,
water depth at the structure, and the deepwater wave steepness. These
basic experimental results are used to estimate formation of shorelines
at the Miyazu coast, Kyoto Prefecture, where an offshore breakwater is
planned.

Two instances of detached breakwaters formed from shipwrecks are
recounted. In 1876, a 600-foot-long French liner grounded in about 28
feet of water at Low Moot and formed a tombolo out to the hull before
it was removed. The Kate Harding, which grounded near Sandy Hook, New
Jersey, around 1894, also formed a tombolo.

The grounding of the Minnte A. Catne, an 880-ton, four-masted
schooner, on the Malibu coast on 24 September 1939, is discussed. The
hull acted as a detached breakwater and formed a tombolo. Because
erosion occurred on the downdrift beaches, the wooden hull was burned
on 22 December 1939, thereby reestablishing natural conditions.

A series of model tests identified the wave dissipation character-
istics of various types of permeable and impermeable breakwaters, The
impermeable breakwaters had 2 on 1 slopes on the seaward side and either
a 2 on 1 slope or a vertical wall on the landward side; the permeable
breakwaters had 2 on 1 rubble slopes, A curve was developed which shows
the transmitted wave heights for both types of structures as a function
of the incident wave conditions.

The existing Winthrop Shore Drive Seawall at Winthrop, Massachusetts,
was found to provide inadequate protection to the developed area behind
it except for the part which lies in the lee of the offshore breakwater
constructed opposite the south part of Winthrop Beach in 1931-1933 by the
Massachusetts Department of Public Works. To prevent further erosion,
stabilize and improve the beach, and protect the existing Winthrop Drive
Seawall, the study recommended placement of 385,000 cubic yards of sand-
fill, construction of eight stone groins with an aggregate length of 3,400
feet, and raising the top elevation of the existing seawall 2 feet for a
length of 3,200 feet.

Notes discuss Pointe de Grave, located at the mouth of the Gironde
River in France. From 1817 to 1830, the point eroded about 15 meters
per year; from 1830 to 1842, the rate increased to 30 meters per year,
In spite of stabilization attempts by the government, the rate increased
to 48 meters per year from 1842 to 1846, Beginning in 1854, a segmented,
detached, rubble-mound breakwater was constructed about 150 meters from
shore. The breakwater extended 1,300 meters with a crest elevation of
1.5 meters below the high water line (HWL). The breakwater successfully
protected the beach at Anse des Huttes and caused a considerable accre-
tion of littoral materials in its lee.

Keywords: Hydraulic model (three-dimensional), Wave diffraction
This investigation experimentally identified wave patterns and
comparative wave heights due to diffraction of water waves entering a
gap in a breakwater normal to the incident wave direction in water of
uniform depth, and compared these results with approximate theoretical
solutions. Both deepwater and shallow-water waves were studied. Oblique
incidence and varying depths were not investigated, but approximate
methods of considering their effect are suggested. The results verified
the general form of the wave diffraction theory for breakwater gaps with
gap-width and wavelength ratios as small as 1.41 in water depths as small
as 0.14 wavelength. The theory and computation methods considered in the
investigation form a usable basis for estimating the effect on diffrac-
tion of waves at a breakwater gap.

Keywords: Accretion, California (Channel Islands), Detached breakwater,
Littoral transport, Sand trap
An analysis of longshore transport at a littoral barrier is pre-
sented. Channel Islands Harbor, California, was selected as the study
site because its offshore breakwater and jetties form a unique complete
littoral barrier. Repetitive surveys accurately determined that long-
shore transport rates in one direction ranged from 160,000 to 1,284,000
cubic meters per year. Using visual observations of surf parameters, the
range of longshore wave thrust was computed as 145 to 1,988 newtons per
meter. A comparison was made of the relation of wave thrust and longshore
sediment transport. This study indicates that in an environment of high
12
transport, nearly twice as much transport is predicted under correspond-
ing wave thrust as that of the data summarized in CERC's Shore Protection
Manual.

lected to determine if the deposition observed agrees with that predicted
before construction. Both the geometry and size distribution of the de-
position sediment are examined. Three-dimensional computer plots illus-
trate filling patterns. Sediment-size and sorting distribution which
occur during filling are investigated. The data were used to evaluate
predicted versus actual filling patterns, and sediment distribution in
the impoundment area.

of Ceara, Brazil, where a detached breakwater connected to shore by an
open viaduct was constructed in 1885. The harbor quickly shoaled and
13
had to be abandoned. Further discussion gives an interesting insight to
the understanding of littoral processes as it then existed,

bed model (scale 1:100) was used to determine the effect of the perched
beach on rip currents; (b) a distorted-scale (1:100 horizontal, 1:50 ver-
tical), two-dimensional, movable-bed model was used to estimate the amount
of sand which might be lost seaward over the toe structure due to normal
and storm wave actions and to determine the optimim crown elevation of the
submerged structure and the length of stone riprap apron required to re-
duce the seaward migration of sand to a minimum; and (c) an undistorted,
two-dimensional model (scale 1:30) was used to determine the structural
design of the proposed rubble-mound toe structure for various depths,
The report describes the testing and results up to the premature termina-
tion of the model studies.

Breakwaters in a series are used to protect newly reclaimed land
along the southeast coast of Singapore, acting as headlands for the for-
mation of sand beaches. The development of these beaches occurs under
conditions of low-energy waves, a predominant wave direction from the
southeast, and an east-west littoral drift. The characteristics and
development of three beaches over a l-year period are presented. Surveys
of the reclaimed land show various beach types between the headland break-
waters. A relationship exists between berm orientation and the headland
breakwater orientation. Beach stability is tentatively indicated by the
formation of a wide berm.

A 1:75-scale (undistorted) hydraulic model, reproducing approximately
2.6 miles of shoreline and sufficient offshore area to permit generation
of the required test waves, was used to investigate the arrangement and
design of alternative proposed structures to prevent erosion of the Imper-

breakwaters at the -15- and -10-foot contours, (b) segmented breakwaters
at the -15- and -5-foot contours, (c) stepped breakwaters at the -10- and
-5-foot contours, (d) a system of five groins, and (e) a system of nine
groins. A 115-foot-long wave generator, crushed coal tracer material,
and an automated data acquisition and control system (ADACS) were used
during model operation. Test results are given,

This study consists of two parts. The first part discusses the
effect of the presence of a breakwater on the profile of a beach, The
tests were preceded by a study of the kind of disturbance arising behind
a breakwater, which causes the occurrence of harmonics of the incident
wave, The different types of breaking over the structure resulting from
the characteristics of the incident wave and the layout of the structure
were also observed; three typical types were noted: a horizontal jet of
water, a descending jet, and partial breaking.
The second part discusses the layout of an immersed breakwater in-
tended for local beach protection. The characteristics of the protection
were studied to find the most favorable compromise between the protection
desired and the danger of erosion. The influence of the duration of wave
action from different directions plays an important part in determining
the characteristics of the structure.

This paper reexamines the behavior of thin and rectangular solid
submerged breakwaters. Dean's theory is found to be correct for a thin
barrier in infinitely deep water. An empirical and theoretical relation-
ship for the reflection coefficient of a thin breakwater across the wave
number spectrum is proposed. Rectangular solid breakwaters have a maxi-
mum reflection when the incident wave has the same period as a standing
wave on top of the breakwater and with a wavelength equal to the crest
width. A submerged permeable breakwater for depths of submergence great-
er than 5 percent of the total depth transmits less wave energy than the
solid over a certain frequency range. The minimum is transmitted when
the criterion above for solid breakwaters is also met. Both permeable
and solid rectangular breakwaters cause a substantial loss in wave energy
and at least 50 percent of the incident energy is lost to turbulence. A
substantial proportion, 30 to 60 percent, of the energy transmitted is
transferred to higher frequencies than the incident wave.

Attacking storm waves affect the overall design of any offshore
breakwater used as a protective structure. This paper describes the
methods and considerations required to evaluate the stability of an off-
shore breakwater under design storm wave action. The following storm
wave effects are of concern:
(a) The possibility of wave forces physically causing
damage to the breakwater embankment materials;
(b) the stability of the breakwater against horizontal
sliding;
(c) the stability of the breakwater embankment against
slope failure; and
(d) the effect of continuing storm waves on the strength
and stability of the foundation soils.
The procedures described in this paper are part of the necessary
stability considerations in the design of a breakwater to protect a float-
ing nuclear generating plant (FNP). Although developed for a floating
nuclear powerplant, the concepts presented are considered applicable to
the stability evaluation of any major offshore breakwater-foundation soil
system. They also represent an advance in the state-of-the-art of stabil-
ity analyses for offshore structures.

When continuous wave action strikes the beach at an angle, trans-
port of the beach material occurs along the entire length of the lit-
toral. On occasion, this may cause serious problems in some maritime
structures or in natural river mouths such as silting of harbors, the
formation of sandbars in river mouths and inlets, To avoid or at least
reduce this type of problem, the Hydraulic Laboratory of the Secretaria
de Recursos Hidraulicos executed a series of studies to find a structure
that may permit a control on the longshore transport produced by wave
action. Based on these studies, a new type of structure was developed
and tested on hydraulic models; the structure permits the accumulation
of littoral material in volumes up to 30 times as large as the volume
retained by conventional breakwaters and spur dikes or jetties. This
paper deals with the definition of the size of breakwaters depending on
wave characteristics and the slope of the beach. The experiments lead-
ing to the recommendations given in the paper were conducted on estuaries
with and without sediment transport.

The coastal installation at Nahariya, which consists of a low break-
water and a central groin, proved successful from the stability viewpoint
and for the purpose of creating a stretch of protected sandy beach and
foreshore. Two shallow-water basins, protected from wave action and easily
accessible to bathers, were formed in the lee of the breakwater; these
basins also served as terminals for small craft and cruising launches dur-
ing the summer season, thus supplying additional attraction to vacationers.
The rubble-mound breakwater has withstood storm wave onslaughts and
requires only slight periodical maintenance, mainly at the heads, Its
20
inner slope, protected by a gabionade, has also proved to be stable,
The concrete cap on top of the breakwater has not shown any signs of
subsidence during the past 4 years. Moreover, considerable quantities
of valuable sand are being extracted from the central area each year,

Many factors are involved in the reproduction of natural sedimento-
logical processes in a wave basin with a movable bed, and a misinterpre-
tation of some of them may lead to erroneous conclusions, The exact
definition of the sedimentological time-scale is less important than the
reproduction of the seabed configuration or representation of sand grain
particles and wave spectra.
Little is known about the exact full-scale sedimentation processes
in the prototype. However, it is assumed that the formation of tombolos
in the lee of offshore breakwaters results mainly from the interception
of littoral drift. Some of the sand enters directly into the shadow zone
behind the breakwater; other sand particles bypass the breakwater on the
seaward side and are then directed by diffraction into the shadow zone.
The accelerated sedimentological process in the model reproduces the nat-
ural development of tombolo formation in the prototype, which, in order
to reach a state of equilibrium, requires a considerable period of time.

Although insular breakwaters are often constructed in harbors, the
interaction between an insular breakwater and water waves has not been
clearly defined. This report presents the exact solution of wave reflec-
tion and diffraction by a vertical, elliptical cylinder with a series of
Mathieu functions. The solution coincides with the solution for a circu-
lar cylinder when the circle is taken as an asympotic figure of an ellipse,
The exact solution for a straight insular breakwater is derived from the
deformation of the elliptical cylinder into a plate of infinitesimal
thickness, Wave height ratios of scattered waves to incident waves have
been calculated near insular breakwaters, and the application limit of
the approximate solution is determined from the comparison between the
exact and the approximate solutions.

From several years of qualitative and quantitative study of the
shore processes effective along the southern California coast, wave
turbulence was found to be the most important factor in making sediment
with a grain size larger than 125 micrometers (0.125 millimeter) avail-
able for transportation along the coast, In the certain constricted
tidal inlets, at the shoulders of submarine platforms, and at the sum-
mits of submarine ridges and divides, currents are sufficiently acceler-
ated at times to transport sand of a substantial grain size, but the
magnitude of such sediment shifting is probably inconsequential compared
to that which occurs along most beaches and the adjacent sea floor, This
paper briefly discusses where and how littoral drifting occurs in this
region and gives an example of the relative effectiveness of the various
transporting processes as illustrated by the changes which occurred in
and near the Santa Monica breakwater.

The problem of sand transport by a longshore current is clarified
by observing the effect of a breakwater on the current, Sand samples
were collected on a network from the beaches near the breakwater at
Santa Monica, California, The distribution of median grain sizes indi-
cates a reduction of the competence of the longshore current, The his-
tory of shoreline changes discloses an accompanying reduction in the
capacity of the current. A decrease in transporting power of the long-
shore current is correlated with a decrease of Q, the littoral drift
factor; Q can probably be used as a qualitative measure of the sand-
transporting power of longshore currents.
The history of accretion indicates that a shoreline changes position
in a direction toward equilibrium with respect to the forces acting on a
beach. Given enough time, it is probable that the breakwater will become
connected to the mainland.

The exposure of the coast of Niigata Prefecture to the winter mon-
soon of the Sea of Japan, which has the predominant direction from north-
west to north, is the most important factor affecting the beach erosion
er sand transport on this coast. Most of the coast has sandy beaches
nourished by sediment from rivers. There are some harbors and a number
of small fishery ports. The construction of breakwaters, groins, or
jetties in the harbors or ports caused certain changes in the patterns
of waves, currents, and littoral transport; thus, beach erosion or sand
deposition occurred in many parts of the coast. This paper presents
several examples of such coastal processes with a description of the
protection works applied.

A theory for wave transmission and reflection at a closely spaced
pile breakwater was developed, using the shallow-water wave theory of
small amplitude. An experiment on the hydraulic characteristics of the
breakwater was conducted in a two-dimensional wave flume, The agreement
between the theory and the experiment is good with respect to the co-
efficients of transmission and reflection of waves, and also to the
shoreward velocity of the jet discharged from a space between two adja-
cent piles.
An experiment was also conducted on the local scouring at the foot
of the closely spaced pile breakwater. The maximum scouring depth at
the foot of the breakwater relates closely to the velocity ratio of the
jet to the mean fall velocity of bed material, The relationship between
the maximum scouring depth and the power of the jet is discussed.

a breakwater have been studied both theoretically and experimentally,
A theory is presented for the transmission of waves past the breakwater
and also for the thrust and bending moment exerted by the waves on each
pile in the breakwater. A laboratory experiment was conducted on a
model structure. Close agreement is shown in the comparison between
the theory and the experiment with respect to the transmission coeffi-
cient and the bending moment distribution.

Over the past 15 years. the beaches in Boston Harbor have undergone
intensive erosion, particularly the popular sandy beaches of Revere,
Nantasket, and Winthrop. This project was undertaken to gain a better
understanding of the natural processes that cause this erosion and to
consider ways to accommodate the natural processes in dealing with the
problem. The study is a combination of short-term studies designed to
26
provide basic data on wave action, tides and tidal currents, and wind
action for comparison with those processes acting on other Massachusetts
beaches previously studied.

Since the 1940's, the beaches between the Surfside Beach Colony and
Newport submarine canyon have experienced progressive erosion caused by
the loss of sand supply to the beach because of flood control reservoirs
and the improper placement of harbor structures on the shore, The most
economical proposed solution for this problem would require construction
of a 2,600-foot-long detached breakwater to act as a sand trap on the
24-foot contour immediately updrift of the Newport canyon. At 5-year
intervals, 1,500,000 cubic yards would be dredged from this sand trap
and backpassed to renourish updrift beaches.

The construction of Port Hueneme Harbor, California, in 1940, re-
sulted in an average annual erosion of 1,200,000 cubic yards from the
shoreline downcoast of the harbor. The cause was diversion by the north
jetty of the harbor of littoral sand movement into the Hueneme canyon.
A sand-bypass system was established in 1960-61 by the construction, 1
mile upcoast, of Channel Islands Harbor fronted by a 2,300-foot-long
offshore breakwater located in the 30-foot depth contour. The break-
water serves a dual function of sheltering the harbor entrance and
acting as a littoral sand trap. Three cycles of biennial littoral sand
bypassing were successfully completed. Comparison of the design of the
structure with the impounding characteristics experienced during the
three cycles indicates that the dimensions and capacity of a sand trap
formed by an offshore breakwater can be based on the diffraction patterns
of prevailing wave trains at the two ends of the structure and is inde-
pendent of the depth and dimensions of the entrapment area.

The island breakwater at Visakhapatnam, consisting of two scuttled
ships filled with small stones, was protected by 2- to 6-ton stones on
the weather and lee sides. However, the weather side was damaged by
storms, exposing the ships' plates to wave action, thus warranting ac-
tion for reinforcing the breakwater. Tests were conducted in a wave
flume with various types of armor units, such as stones, tetrapods, and
tribars, to evolve a suitable protective layer for the breakwater and to
study the relative merits of various armor units,

Where headlands are spaced along a sedimentary coast, the shoreline
between the headlands assumes a crenulate shape, If the most persistent
or predominant waves have a resultant direction which is oblique to the
headland alinement, a shape is gradually reached which is in equilibrium
with the waves. The eventual development of such an equilibrium-shaped
bay, starting with an initial straight-line coast, was studied by means
of a model in which wave directions and heights were the sole variables.
The curved part of the equilibrium-shaped coastline was then analyzed by
fitting log-spiral curves.
A typical prototype bay in fully developed condition, derived from
hydrographic charts, was analyzed by computer to verify that diffraction
and refraction combined to form the log-spiral part of the coastline.

The functions and maintenance devices of submerged breakwaters,
using tetrapods, were studied through the comparison of experimental
results and field data from the Niigata west coast. Since one of the
most important functions of a submerged breakwater is the damping action,
the structure has played an important role in protecting the Niigata west
coast. The slump of the structure, which was overlooked at the early
stage of construction, has become an important and difficult problem.

The two principle functions of a submerged breakwater are (a) to
attenuate waves by causing premature breaking and partial reflection,
and (b) to bar seaward movement of bed materials in the surf zone, Most
studies of these functions deal with the effects of the height, shape,
width, location, etc., of the breakwater on the transformation of passing
waves. However, the effect on the sand movement and deformation of the
beach due to the existence of the breakwater has not been sufficiently
studied. This study presents the basic information needed to predict the
possible change in beach profiles after the construction of a breakwater
and to estimate the amount of scour around the structure. This was
accomplished with a study of the two-dimensional deformation of a beach
in an experimental wave flume.

structures has become widely recognized. In designing offshore break-
waters, various complex factors such as the choice of height, width,
location and structure suitable for the intended use, and preventive
measures against settling, must be considered. This report presents
experimental results of the effect of offshore breakwaters in reducing
wave heights.

Keywords: Hydraulic model (two-dimensional), Permeable breakwater,

When a breakwater is composed of artificial blocks, waves can pass
easily through it. However, wave energy is dissipated and the wave
height is decreased. This paper deals with the transmission rate of
wave height, i.e., the ratio of the transmitted wave height H; to the
incident wave height H-, and the rate of energy dissipation. It was
found by experiments that H;¢/H; depends only on incident wave steepness
for the breakwater when the crest height above the stillwater level h
is larger than H;. However, when h, is smaller than H;, H}/H; de-
pends on both the incident wave steepness and the Reynolds number defined
by Unarhe/v, where Ung, is the maximum horizontal velocity at the
stillwater level. The energy dissipation is expressed as a function of
the incident wave steepness, but its expression is different for the
above two cases.

erosion of the beaches at Venice, and a program was outlined which, if
carried out, would not only have prevented the erosion, but would have
added considerably to the width of the beaches.
This report evaluates the natural conditions that affect the beaches,
discusses the effect of the various structures which have been constructed
along the beaches, and outlines the steps necessary and the costs to pre-

The most difficult problem in shoreline planning is that of beach
erosion, largely caused by haphazard and ill-advised developments by
local coastal communities. Control of pollution by oil and sewage is
also troublesome. The need for a greater extent of publicly owned ocean
frontage has been recognized for years, and is largely a matter of financ-
ing. Development and improvement of public ocean frontage is also largely
a matter of financing, plus proper planning. This article presents a
brief outline of most of these problems.

The littoral drift, which occurs along the shoreline, causes certain de-
sign, construction, and maintenance problems. This paper summarizes some
of these basic considerations in generalized terms and presents a few
case histories of typical shoreline harbors for which operational infor-
mation extending over a long period of years is available.

Experience gained at coastal engineering projects on the California
coast has led to a better understanding of littoral processes. Detached

had disastrous effects on the downdrift beaches. Lessons learned from
these projects have been applied to the Channel Islands-Port Hueneme area
where a detached breakwater serves as a sand trap. Material dredged from
this trap is bypassed to beaches downdrift of Port Hueneme.

A 1:300 vertical, 1:100 horizontal scale model of 7 miles of coast-
line, including the major area of the port limits and the inner harbor,
was constructed to study combined wave, tide, and wind action on transport
of sand along the coast. The model study attributed the cause of beach
erosion to the existence of an offshore shoal produced by the localized
dumping of sand dredged from the harbor approaches. This shoal caused
selective wave action along the coastline, which was reproduced to scale
in the model. Wind and tidal action had a major effect on the redistribu-
tion of sand on the beaches as modeled but a minor effect on the perma-
nence of the harbor entrance channel. The model study was conducted by
the South African Council for Scientific and Industrial Research for the
South African Railways and the City Council of Durban.

The shoreline near the Shinano River at Niigata has retreated as
much as 10 meters per year for the last 25 years. This has necessitated
the development of a system of combined protective works instead of indi-
vidual structures placed in an uncoordinated manner. Because of unsatis-
factory performance of groins, prototype tests on detached submerged
breakwaters were conducted using gabionlike, wire-cage breakwaters, hollow
concrete structures, and cellular concrete caissons filled with rock.
Results of these tests are presented.

The present way of maintaining the beaches by artificial supply of
material should include an investigation of the possibility of decreasing,
without adverse effects, the transport of material away from the beaches.
An idea of coastal protection called "Headland Protection" is presented.
This is a systematic, possibly improved, application of the principle
after which most coastlines are more or less protected naturally. The
economical feasibility depends on measures to decrease the costs involved
in construction of structures in deeper water. Two different ideas for
.such measures are presented. A research program is also suggested.

The theory of wave-induced longshore currents is applied to prob-
lems of beach erosion. An erosion equation is derived, relating the
local erosion (or deposition) rate to the form of the beach and to the
characteristics of the incoming wave field. A numerical integration
technique of the erosion equation is discussed. A specific example, that
of a linear coastline which has gradually eroded into a spiral-shaped
beach in the lee of a headland, is examined.

The problem of beach erosion at Venice is examined and structural
solutions are suggested. The historical causes for the problem are out-
lined and existing structures which have worsened the situation are
identified. Of particular interest is the Windward Avenue pier which
is protected by a detached breakwater. Segmented, detached breakwaters
were rejected as a possible solution because of aésthetic and economic
reasons. Groins and a seawall were selected as the best engineering
alternative.

The location of large surface industrial zones along seashores
often competes with other coastal activities, such as recreational pur-
suits, fishing, nature reserves, etc. The construction of an artificial
island, near the shore, poses many problems particularly with its impact
on the environment. The results of a study examining this aspect include
(a) the influence of the island on local wave climate or swell, consequent
shoreline changes, tidal currents, and the resulting evolution of the
sandy seabed; and (b) the dispersion of industrial effluents.
The effect of the island on swell and on shore stability and the
calculation of pollutant dispersion are approached by the use of mathe-
matical models; the effect of the island on tidal currents is analyzed
on a reduced-scale physical model.

Littoral oceanic currents induce eddy currents in the lee of
promontories, either natural or artificial, and thereby shape the shore-
line to some form of the logarithmic spiral, r = e®°. Construction of
jetties or breakwaters extending into the currents causes the spiral
shoreline to form, resulting in beach erosion and prograding. The severe
erosion of southern California beaches is discussed. Beach changes are
independent of size of sand, beach slopes, depths in the foreshore, pre-
vailing winds, or other causes, except for currents--littoral, eddy, or
estuarial.

This study provides a semiempirical theory of nearshore currents
due to breaking waves in the presence of (a) a shore-connected breakwater
or (b) an offshore breakwater. The effects of diffraction and refraction
by shoaling waters are studied. Sample results for stream functions and
mean sea levels are plotted for various beach profiles or incidence angles.

For the offshore breakwater, the predicted current pattern is consistent
with available laboratory observations and the known tendency of tombolo
formation. For the shore-connected breakwater, the computed flow pattern
exhibits cells in both down-wave and up-wave regions.

Keywords: Accretion, Currents, Detached breakwater, Littoral transport,
Numerical model, Tombolo, Wave diffraction, Wave refraction
For a long breakwater on a slowly varying bottom, an asymptotic
theory is given which accounts for the combined effects of refraction
and Fresnel diffraction of water waves. Numerical examples are given
for an offshore breakwater and an isolated jetty.
A semiempirical theory of breaking-induced mean currents on a beach
is developed to study the combined effects of refraction and diffraction.
With the omission of convective inertia and lateral turbulent diffusion,
the resulting averaged equations are solved by finite differences. The
case of an offshore breakwater is studied in detail, and the predicted
current pattern is consistent with laboratory observations and the known
tendency of tombolo formation near sandy beaches. Numerical results for
an isolated breakwater extending from the shore are also presented.

The construction of ports on sandy coasts presents serious prob-
lems to the designer. Provision must be made for dealing with the
littoral materials moving down the coast. Port structures can be either
perpendicular to shore as jetties or parallel to shore as detached break-
waters. Detached breakwaters at Salerno and Chiavari have been used to
protect eroding shorelines where the use of groins had previously failed.
The placement of harbor structures must be planned to eliminate or reduce
required maintenance dredging. To achieve this end, the idea of a "neu-
tral axis" is presented. Seaward of the neutral axis no material can be
moved to the shore.

The knowledge of the nature of currents in the coastal zone is
important for the successful completion of many design problems. The
choice of approach channel tracks and the drifting of those channels are
typical problems that require an understanding of coastal currents. Arti-
ficial beaches have been maintained along the Black Sea coast through the
use of submerged, concrete breakwaters constructed parallel to shore.
Design considerations are outlined.

pp. 781-821.
Keywords: Offshore island, Wave setup
Islands can trap long-wave energy in a way similar to the capture
of a particle of an atomic nucleus. The frequencies of the captured
waves form a discrete set and are determined by the shape of the island
and the contours of the surrounding seabed. If the depth at great dis-
tances tends to a constant value, the trapped modes leak some energy to
infinity, though the consequent rate of decay may be exceedingly small.
The initial energy of the trapped modes may be absorbed from incident
radiation of the same frequency or from a sharp pulse. The particular
example of a rectilinear pulse incident on a circular island is discussed
in some detail.

The beach prism consists of many kinds of materials ranging from
soft clays to durable rocks. These are arranged according to the severity
of the local wave climate. If the coastal material is uniform, the
shoreline will maintain a stable configuration and slope. Capes, head-
lands, or strong groins resist wave action and influence neighboring
coastlines. They are the fixed points on the configuration of the shore-
line. Between the adjoining fixed points, the beach materials are usually
uniform so that the coast maintains its shoreline configuration and slope.
The supply of materials around these fixed points will be related to the
depth adjacent to the fixed points and to the approaching directions of
the coastlines. This report describes the configurations of the coast-
line between fixed points.

The results of experiments in connection with submerged barriers
in the path of model waves indicate that the most effective position of
the barrier would be in shallow water of d/H = 2.0 to 2.5; i.e., directly
at the breaking point. Indications are that the most effective heights
of the barrier are more than two-thirds of the water depth. This condi-
tion gives less than a wave height of water over the barrier. From the
standpoint of the waves, the relatively long-period waves have more
transmission than do shorter waves, How far this analogy of model waves
can be carried with regard to ocean waves has not been demonstrated.

The two major purposes of an offshore breakwater are to prevent
erosion and to protect structures on the shore. Studies on offshore
breakwaters have included experiments in two dimensions, monitoring of
existing breakwaters, and determinations of transmitted wave heights on
submerged breakwaters. There are few studies on the three-dimensional
effects of offshore breakwaters on shore processes.
This study determines the design and positioning of offshore break-
waters not only to prevent shore erosion, but to promote an accumulation
of littoral material to lessen the nearshore slope and to maximize the
area of the sandy beach. The model chosen for the study was Kasumi Bay,
northern Hyogo Prefecture, facing the Sea of Japan. Waves on this coast
occur mainly during the winter, caused by seasonal winds. When winter
storms pass through, the coast is subjected to continuous waves with
heights of several meters for periods of 2 to 3 days.

Wave energy is dissipated by a submerged breakwater when waves
break on the structure. Some of the remaining energy is dissipated by
reflection and friction on the crown of the submerged breakwater and
some is transmitted shoreward. In previously published reports, the
46
transmission coefficient has been obtained mainly by the observation of
wave reflection from the submerged structure. The theoretical analysis
of wave breaking is very difficult because of its complexity. However,
the wave energy dissipation by a submerged breakwater is maximized by
inducing the wave breaking on the structure.
This report mainly deals with energy dissipation due to breaking
on a submerged breakwater and offers experimental data for practical use.
To investigate the scale effect of the experimental results, a comparison
between experimental data and field data is presented.

This paper describes an experimental attempt to prevent the rapid
blocking of a harbor entrance caused by littoral transport in the summer
period. This work was conducted at Seppu, a fishing harbor constructed
on a sandy beach in Hokkaido, Japan. This investigation was originally
sponsored by the Harbor Section of the Hokkaido Prefectural Office. One
of the top priority objectives, at that time, was to determine the effi-
ciency of two jetties constructed on the updrift side to counter the
littoral transport. Detailed observations, including preliminary model
experiments, were made from 1961 to 1963 on the general aspects (i.e.,
condition and phenomena) of the coast. Meterological data were also
compiled.
Based on the above, this paper suggests the utilization of natural
forces, i.e., waves, offshore currents, etc., by constructing an offshore
breakwater to curb the blockage of the harbor mouth.

The port of Visakhapatnam is protected from shoaling problems by
an offshore breakwater that acts as a sand trap and forms a sheltered
dredging basin. The breakwater is constructed of rubble armor over two
sunken ship hulls. The heavy wave conditions have necessitated extensive
rehabilitation efforts, the most recent of which was tested in a hydraulic
model.

Computer simulation models are developed to investigate the forma-
tion of a hooked-beach shoreline shape in the lee of a rocky headland.
The modeling technique combines two one-dimensional cell systems alined
at right angles to each other so that beach erosion can proceed in two
directions. In the hooked part of the beach, the shape of the refracted-
diffracted wave front is an arbitrary function of the offshore wave
approach angle. The results indicate that the shape of the hooked beach
is dependent on the direction of wave approach, and the shape of the
refracted-diffracted wave front.

Two simulation models on nearshore environments were developed.
The first model is for predicting shoreline deformation behind a detached
breakwater placed parallel to the shoreline, and the second is for simu-
lating currents in the nearshore zone under the influence of an arbitrary
bottom topography. The former model was tested by laboratory experiments
(Horikawa and Koizumi, 1974), and the latter was verified by field obser-
vations.

Several numerical treatments have been presented to predict shore-

headlands, as well as the changes brought about by the erection of man-
made structures such as groins, jetties, and breakwaters. However, few
discussions concerning the validity of these models have been made except
those based on laboratory data. This paper presents a verification of
the shoreline simulation model of Sasaki (1975), using very precise field
data regarding the shoreline and wave conditions, particularly those on
wave direction. Satisfactory agreement is found for engineering purposes
in predicting shoreline changes near a breakwater.

are offered.
The results from observations of longshore current by floats and
of longshore drift by fluorescent tracers, topographic survey, sediment
analysis, nearshore scour measurements, and model experiments (in both
fixed and movable beds) are given. The characteristics of coastal ero-
sion in Toyama Bay were found to be well associated with the irregular

are of interest to the engineer responsible for the construction of ports
on sandy coasts.
An attempt was made to determine the influence on littoral drift of
such factors as: wave characteristics, wave steepness, the inclination
of the wave crests breaking on the beach, and the nature of the beach
material. The formation of certain types of tombolos found in nature is
also described.

Beach erosion is a serious problem on the Niigata Coast where the
shoreline has receded more than 300 meters during the past 50 years.
This tendency was accelerated after the completion of a floodway on the
Shinano River which caused a considerable decrease of sediment supply
to this coast. A submerged breakwater was constructed about 500 meters
from the shoreline to protect the eroded coast. This paper discusses
the effect of the breakwater on wave transmission and on the deposition
of sand, using the results of field observations by the Office of Shinano
River Works, Niigata Prefecture.

Israel, was damaged on numerous occasions and a successful treatment
for the landward slope was not found until PVC-coated gabions were tried.
The results have been promising. The use of gabions on the landward slope
has been introduced into the design of a,similar structure at Tel Baruch.

The determination of wave heights and patterns for waves diffracted
-by an infinitely long breakwater, or by a breakwater gap, has been based
on the theoretical solution for optical diffraction. Correct results
are obtainable at distances in the shadow zone many wavelengths from the
breakwater, but within an area of three wavelengths the results are
erroneous. Offshore breakwaters of limited length must be studied if
their use in preventing beach erosion is to be successful, The main
factor to be considered is the wave pattern close to the breakwater.
Model tests for wave patterns with two different lengths of breakwater
and waves of different steepnesses are described and results presented
in a form suitable for application.

A sedimentary coastline with a predominant direction of swell tends
to develop crenulate-shaped bays between adjacent headlands. This has
been verified by model experiments described here. The use of artificial
headlands would stabilize eroding shorelines by promoting growth of min-
iature crenulate-shaped bays, providing wide beaches to protect backshore
areas.

Ocean waves and their action on beaches are discussed with emphasis
on the two classifications, storm and swell, and on the repetitive nature
of their occurrence. Discussion of beach processes explains the impor-
tance of the persistent swell in sediment movement.
A model investigation is described in which waves from an oblique
direction eroded a straight sedimentary coastline until a stable bay
shape was formed about fixed headlands, A similar shape was seen to
occur in nature as is observed, for example, on Admiralty Charts. The
orientation of these bays was related to the direction of the predominant
swell and hence of the net sediment movement along the coast. Sediment
movement for the coastlines of the world was determined from the Admiralty
Charts. The significance of such data for the design of maritime struc-
tures is discussed.

Typical or standard beach profiles, if established for a given wave

the assessment of imminent beach degradation. The many formulas derived
for littoral current and littoral drift need attention as also the many
practical variables involved in their measurement, Greater cognizance
should be taken of sediment transport offshore from the surf zone,

Coastal defense incorporates the results of sediment motion (erosion
or accretion) along the shore. Although much of this activity is in the
surf zone, the ultimate stability of the shoreline is determined by tend-
encies seaward of the zone. The effectiveness of groins depends on their
location within bays formed between headlands. Such naturally formed bays
indicate a beach control system by headland-type structures. The natural
bypassing of sediment across harbor and river mouths might be achieved by
promoting wave reflection. Short-crested waves could maintain the sedi-
ment in quasi-suspension during passage across the entrance channel.
Seawalls and revetments constructed on sedimentary coasts only aggravate
the erosion problem they are designed to mitigate, because of the influ-
ence of wave reflection. Hence, the influence of reflected waves in the
near and offshore zone is of great importance. Causes of erosion should
be determined before beach renourishment is undertaken on a large scale.
All factors combine in an estuary to produce siltation.

Crenulate-shaped bays are prominent coastal features. If sediment
supply is not available, an equilibrium shape is reached. The shape and
orientation of the bays is a function of the persistent swell. The final
shape is independent of scale and depends only on the wave approach angle.

From all aspects of surfing, a mildly sloped beach produces better
waves than a steeply sloped beach. The extra demand for board riding in
plunging breakers is for a reasonably slow-peeling rate, which requires
an extreme approach angle of breaking waves to bed contours. The crenu-
late-shaped bay, either as a natural or manmade feature, can supply the
variety of conditions demanded by the body or board surfer. Thus, sta-
bilization and recreation might be served by the same headland approach.

Crenulate-shaped bays are ubiquitous and constitute the largest
proportion of coastline length. The characteristics of stable bays
(i.e., no littoral drift) are known and realistic encroachment limits
can be defined. Allowances should be made for long-term changes in di-
rection of persistent swell and annual attack from multidirectional storm
waves. The exposure of a rock outcrop during an erosive sequence will
create a new fixed point on the coast and hence a new system of bays.

An existing nonstable bay can be prevented from indenting to its equili-
brium shape by the construction of one or more fixed points around its
periphery. Research should be conducted to minimize the cost of head-
lands which might start as offshore breakwaters, even mobile units.

Crenulate-shaped bays are common on coastal margins of oceans,
inland seas, or lakes where sedimentary beaches exist between headlands.
They have a particular orientation to the swell or resultant wave energy
vector, such that the straight tangent section is downcoast and the curved
part upcoast. The latter is a logarithmic spiral at all stages of devel-
opment of the bay. When fully stable, i.e., no littoral drift occurring,
the constant of the logspiral equation has a specific relationship to the
approach angle of the waves to the headland alinement. In this condition
it is known that diffraction and refraction are involved when waves sculp-
ture the curved beach in the lee of the upcoast headland. A further ratio
to identify stable bays appears to be the ratio of indentation length to
clearance between headlands. The application of crenulate-shaped bays to
stabilization of a reclaimed shoreline suffering strong littoral drift on
Singapore Island is described.

The standard structures for shore protection, seawalls and groins,
do not always perform as desired. They may fail to stop erosion of the
beach. Seawalls are sometimes undermined and fail, The concept of
“artificial headlands" appears generally to cost less and to perform
better. The idea was suggested by observation of natural headlands and
bays on the seacoasts of the world.

Keywords: Hydraulic model (three-dimensional), Wave diffraction, Wave

By considering separately the two terms of the Sommerfield solution
of wave diffraction behind a semi-infinite breakwater, the influence of
the wave reflection from the structure can be evaluated. The diffraction
coefficient at any point can be obtained from a graph or table for full,
partial, or no reflection by the addition of two coefficients, Wave
heights were found to decrease consistently along the near-circular crests
for all distances from the breakwater tip. For a workable range of inci-
dent angle and distance from the breakwater, wave heights could be defined
by this arc distance from the shadow line expressed in wavelengths. These
relationships have been verified experimentally for all but the smallest
incident angle in proximity to the breakwater.
Several theoretical solutions for the breakwater gap are shown to
be very similar, diverging only for small incident angles. New parameters
are provided which greatly simplify the presentation of information. The
scatter of past experimental data precludes the verification of this
theory and indicates the need for further tests.

obstacle from infinity, is diffracted and scattered by the thin barrier
(this represents a detached breakwater of large length to thickness ra-
tio). The potential wave energy (i.e., the wave height) in the region
surrounding the obstacle was computed. Maps of the state of the sea
near the barrier were used to evaluate the breakwater performance, there-
fore, improving the design. Computations are carried out for a monochro-
matic incident wave and an impervious obstacle. The solution is extended
to the cases of a pervious barrier and a random incident wave.

A series of studies were conducted from 1968 to 1971 on the pro-
cess of erosion and the variation of function of coastal structures on
the coast of Toyama Bay. An analysis of the coastline changes which have
occurred during the past 10 years is made by comparing the shoreline plan
(scale: 1/5,000) drawn in 1957 with the plan made during the past 3 years
(1968-1971). The analysis revealed that the coastline on the east coast,
in particular, had receded by 50.0 to 70.0 meters. Research was conducted
to determine if there was a connection between the recession and the loca-
tion of rivers. Most of the recession occurred at the mouth of rivers.
Because of steep slopes at the mouth, most rivers flow rapidly into the
bay.
Based on the results of studies about the secular change of coastal
structures, types of shorelines and shore protection structures were
classified.

This paper presents a method for beach design which provides both
coastal protection for the beach and protection for the bathing public.
Reasons are given as to why the open sea foreshores are, in many cases,
unsuitable for recreation.
The method uses an enclosed submerged breakwater coupled with short
groins to provide a bathing beach with a safe swimming area and a con-
trolled sand plaza. Economical in execution and maintenance, the method
can be used for sandy or rocky coasts.

Vertical breakwater, Wave reflection, Wave transmission
Wave motion through a permeable coastal structure such as a rip-
rap dike or a permeable breakwater is subject to resistance. If the
flow in a permeable structure is laminar, it is treated by considering
linear resistance. Such treatment is effective in the analysis of the
fluctuations of coastal ground water caused by the ebb and flow of tides,
and has produced satisfactory results in field tests for permeability
measurement.
If the flow is turbulent due to short-period waves such as wind
waves, the resistance is a function of Reynolds number. The analysis of
such a flow can be made by approximating the nonlinear resistance term
with a linear relationship. A typical example of nonlinear resistance,
the wave motion in a vertical riprap dike, was adopted and a theoretical
study was made on the ratios of wave transmission and reflection due to
the structure. Experiments were also conducted to determine transmission
and reflection characteristics of a riprap dike constructed in a wave
channel. The results of these experiments show a good fit between experi-
mental and theoretical values.

Vertical breakwater, Wave overtopping
Wave overtopping of breakwaters has been investigated experimentally
to obtain data to be used in the design of the height of these structures.
Various models of breakwaters were set on a beach with a slope of 1:30,
and the volume of wave overtopping was measured. Wave overtopping on ver-
tical walls was studied in detail; the effects of the front slope, parapet
wall, and wind were determined by comparisons with the results of the ver-
tical wall tests.
The relationship between wave runup and wave overtopping was inves-
tigated, and a method of estimating wave overtopping was established.
The overtopping volume of the existing structure was calculated by this
method. It was found that wave absorbers should be placed seaward of
structures when the volume of wave overtopping is large.

One of the features of a recent Monaco Government modernization
scheme was an artificial beach in Larvotto Bay at Monte Carlo, which was
to offer first-class bathing and amenities matching the very high stand-
ard of urban development planned for the area. Most of the Monaco coast
is rocky and very steep, and the only places with a gradual slope down
to the sea were a few very inferior beaches the waves had formed with
widely varied materials from local builders' rubble dumps.

As a countermeasure against beach erosion, a serious problem in
Japan, many preventive works, such as seawalls and groins, have been
constructed during the past 20 or more years. However, seawalls and
groins are not always effective in preventing beach erosion; in some
cases they accelerate erosion.
Based on the above, detached breakwater systems were tried as a
measure against beach erosion for the last 8 years, The purpose was
to develop sand deposition behind the structures. Several experimental
works were carried out and most of the tests were successful, The design
method of this system was based on the results of field investigations
conducted for more than 8 years.

The coastlines of the Japanese Island predominantly face the open
sea and are subject to attack by severe wave action. Beach erosion has
increased since the 1950's due to decreased sediment supply from rivers
and from interference with longshore sediment transport by manmade struc-
tures.
The shoreline at Kaike has receded about 200 meters since about
1920. Attempts to stabilize the beach using groins and seawalls was
largely unsuccessful during the period from 1947 to 1971. In September
1971, the first of a series of segmented, detached ‘breakwaters was con-
structed. These have caused the accretion of sediment and several tombo-
los have formed. The article describes the development of the Kaike
project and presents results of field surveys.

Model tests to determine the quantity of littoral drift for various
crest elevations of an offshore breakwater at the Broward County Beach
were conducted. Wave heights on the lee side of the breakwater were
measured by theoretical and empirical methods, and the capacity of sand
transport for each breakwater height was determined. Four specific cases
were tested in detail: sand transport capacity without a breakwater
(i.e., the existing conditions) and sand transport with breakwater crest
elevations of +2, -2, and +0 feet above MSL. The range of wave heights
and water levels in the model tests covered the corresponding parameters
in nature.

dams could be built having a plan the shape of a lens, thereby affecting
the wave orthogonals as glass lenses affect light rays.

detached solid work, before a stable equilibrium is established, provided
the movement of material is due only to wave action. Such an estimate
will be necessary for forming an opinion of how far out from the shore a
given structure should be placed to ensure against its becoming land-

For controlling littoral drift, the location of a structure near
the shore which causes tombolo formation, is more effective than other
Systems more frequently used. An experimental study carried out in a
physical sedimentological model, using bakelite, was developed to find
67
tombolo formation limits, as well as accumulation percentages in total
or partial tombolo formation. Most of the parameters prevailing in tom-
bolo formation were varied--the length of the obstacle, the gap between
the beach and the obstacle, the angle formed between the long axis of
the structure and the incident wave, the wave height and its period.
Several observations on the nature of shoreline movement near
three old sunken ships on the coast of Salina Cruz, Oaxaca, Mexico, were
compared with the experimental results; these showed great similarity.
Comparative tests with groins and tombolos were made in the same model
to define the order of effectiveness.

If a straight sedimentary coastline with headlands suffers persis-
tent waves from an oblique direction and no replenishment is provided for
material removed downcoast, it will assume a crenulate shape which becomes
progressively more indented. Finally, a shape is reached which is in
equilibrium with the waves. The development of such equilibrium-shaped
bays was studied by means of a model in which wave direction and wave
periods were the sole variables. Thus, the wave height, water depth,
beach height, and sedimentary material were the same throughout.
The shape of the bay at various stages from straight line to fully
stable was measured after various wave durations, It was found that the
major curved part of the waterline was a logarithmic spiral, the constant
of which varied throughout. A consistent pattern was observed for this
constant for the three wave approach angles of 30°, 45°, and 60°, and the
three wave periods of 0.6, 1.0, and 1.4 seconds.

This paper summarizes factors governing the stability of low-crest
breakwaters subjected to overtopping waves. Both model experiments and
prototype experience indicate that the backslope armor units of such
breakwaters may be more susceptible to damage than those on the seaward
slope. It is often desirable to lower the crest elevation to reduce the
first cost where partial protection from the incident waves is required.
Such applications occur in water intakes for powerplants, small-craft
harbor entrance channels, beach protection projects, and hard-surfaced
offshore fills.

Logarithmic spiral curves approximate equilibrium shoreline shapes
for areas of Florida's coast which are sheltered by natural reefs and
capes. However, the log spiral curve lacks physical justification for
describing the phenomena of an equilibrium coast, A model is postulated
for an equilibrium coast which uses a continuous wave height energy dis-
tribution from visual ship wave observations to predict the stable,
sheltered shoreline and is found to provide shoreline shapes similar to
the logarithmic spiral shape for sheltered coasts in Florida, The method
69
can also be used in the design of coastal structures for prediction of
erosion-accretion zones in stable areas,

A headland-bay beach is defined as a beach lying in the lee of a
headland subjected to a predominant direction of wave attack, Such
70
beaches characteristically have a seaward-concave plan shape resulting
from erosion caused by refraction, diffraction, and reflection of waves
into the shadow zone behind the headland. Increasing radius of plan
curvature with distance from the headland suggested testing the logarith-
mic spiral, r = e9¢0t2, as an approximation to the shape of headland-bay
beaches. Four natural beaches were selected for testing goodness of fit
to the log-spiral approximation: Spiral Beach, Sandy Hook, New Jersey;
Halfmoon Bay Beach, California; and Drakes Beach and Limantour Spit Beach
lying along the Drakes Bay shoreline to the north of San Francisco, Cali-
fornia. Results range from excellent to good with the best fit being the
Spiral Beach curvature for which the mean squared error in length of the
log-spiral radius vector is only 0.82 foot squared.
