Using numerous mathematical and numerical techniques of diffraction theory, Waves in
Focal Regions: Propagation, Diffraction and Focusing of Light, Sound and Water Waves …

This paper describes a new laboratory study in which a large number of waves, of varying
frequency and propagating in different directions, were focused at one point in space and …

In this paper, water wave interaction with an array of thin submerged horizontal circular
plates is investigated within the framework of linear potential flow theory. To consider a more …

In the field of offshore renewable energy, impermeable plates are used as underwater
lenses to amplify the wave amplitude, and perforated plates can harness wave energy as a …

A wave energy converter (WEC)-breakwater integration system consisting of a heaving WEC
and a bottom-mounted dual-arc breakwater is proposed. The energy extraction performance …

In the multifunctional system consisting of point absorber wave energy converters and a
pontoon breakwater, the breakwater plays an essential role in attenuating waves on the lee …

Solitary and cnoidal wave transformation over a submerged, fixed, horizontal rigid plate is
studied by use of the nonlinear, shallow-water Level I Green-Naghdi (GN) equations …

Water waves in natural environments are typically broadband, nonlinear, and dynamic
phenomena. Taking concepts developed for slow light in optics, we address the challenge of …

Inspired by the focusing principle of a parabolic-type mirror and the wave Bragg resonance,
a parabolic-type spatial layout with a Bragg bottom is proposed, which can significantly …
