Finite amplitude standing wave solutions, obtained previously, are specialized to the case of incompressible isotropic elastic solids with cubic or quintic shear response. This allows closed-form expressions for the motion and stress field, in terms of Jacobian elliptic functions and elliptic integrals and furnishes solutions for approximate finite elasticity theories in which terms up to sixth degree in the stress and strains are retained. The solutions for reflection from free or fixed boundaries, for resonant standing waves in a plate, and for reflection and transmission at a plane boundary are examined in the context of the third and fourth-order approximations.

abstract The scattered field generated by normally incident body waves in a system of layers having small, but otherwise arbitrary, periodic deviations from plane parallel boundaries is shown to consist of superposed plane body and surfacetype waves. Results of numerical computations for two like half-spaces separated by a sinusoidally corrugated single layer, and by two layers, reveal the variation of the amplitude of the field with ratios of velocities, densities, impedances, and with those of depth of layers and wavelength of the boundary corrugations to the wavelength of the incident wave.

An innovative caisson breakwater geometry (patent pending) named "ARPEC" (Anti Reflective PErmeable Caisson) includes openings at all external and internal walls and at lateral (cross) ones, yet in a staggered pattern, to provide a labyrinthian hydraulic communication between the open sea and the internal waters. The complex sinuous water-flow within the consecutive permeable chambers thus favors wave energy dissipation as well as port water flushing and quality, with very low reflection and transmission coefficients. 2D lab model tests demonstrate the system effectiveness.Recorded Presentation from the vICCE (YouTube Link): https://youtu.be/PaUsinYO-Zo

In a previous paper Madsen and White (1977) developed an approximate method for the determination of reflection and transmission characteristics of multi-layered, porous rubble-mound breakwaters of trapezoidal cross-section. This approximate method was based on the assumption that the energy dissipation associated with the wave-structure interaction could be considered as two separate mechanisms: (1) an external, frictional dissipation on the seaward slope; (2) an internal dissipation within the porous structure. The external dissipation on the seaward slope was evaluated from the semi-theoretical analysis of energy dissipation on rough, impermeable slopes developed by Madsen and White (1975). The remaining wave energy was represented by an equivalent wave incident on a hydraulically equivalent porous breakwater of rectangular cross-section. The partitioning of the remaining wave energy among reflected, transmitted and internally dissipated energy was evaluated as described by Madsen (1974), leading to a determination of the reflection and transmission coefficients of the structure. The advantage of this previous approximate method was its ease of use. Input data requirements were limited to quantities which would either be known (water depth, wave characteristics, breakwater geometry, and stone sizes) or could be estimated (porosity) by the design engineer. This feature was achieved by the employment of empirical relationships for the parameterization of the external and internal energy dissipation mechanisms. General solutions were presented in graphical form so that calculations could proceed using no more sophisticated equipment than a hand calculator (or a slide rule). This simple method gave estimates of transmission coefficients in excellent agreement with laboratory measurements whereas its ability to predict reflection coefficients left a lot to be desired.
