On a freely floating porous box in shallow water waves

On a freely floating porous box in shallow water waves

An analytical solution of the flow field, obtained by the interaction of a linear shallow water wave with a freely floating porous box, is derived. The relatively small drift forces obtained in this new solution indicate the advantage in future use of porous structures as floating breakwaters.
