2D visual modeling book synopsis curtain type wave breaker
2D curtain type wave breaker physical modeling book

Physical modeling is a scientific method used to replicate natural phenomena into smaller scales so that they can be observed and controlled. Physical modeling is reliable in many cases, especially in coastal engineering. Under certain physical conditions, innovations in wave breakers with high effectiveness are required, one of which is by using curtain-type wave breakers. With 2-dimensional physical modeling experiments, the ability of wave breakers to anticipate wave energy can be evaluated so that it is then ready to be implemented in the field.

The book presents basics in the physical modeling of 2-dimensional wave breakers, especially with curtain types. As an introductory material, the book provides narratives on the development of wave breaker types, literature studies relating to curtain type breakers, wave base theory, and principles in physical modeling. Further diskussion in the book includes laboratory preparation, experimental execution, transmission and reflection analysis, and presentation of experimental results and conclusions. The material presented aims to help readers understand scientific principles and methods of analysis in the physical modeling of curtain type wave breakers.
