<p>The barrier consists of a plurality of separate floats (11) arranged in one or two rows in a direction that is substantially perpendicular to the direction in which the principal swells propagate. The floats are designed to reflect one part of an incident swell and dissipate another part through internal damping. The barrier can be used for the protection of coastlines, coastal and harbour facilities for tourists, sports or recreational use, and off-shore installations.</p> |
