Abstract: The design of semi-circular breakwaters and estuary jetties at Tianjin Port and in Deep Water Channel Improvement Project of Yangtze Estuary is introduced in the present paper. A new calculation method for the wave forces acting on a submerged semi-circular structure is given based on physical model tests. The development of the structure of semi-circular breakwater and estuary jetty is also discussed.
