Abstract: The prediction of reflection and transmission coefficients through single perforated sheets and walls plays an important role in the assessment of the hydraulic behaviour of upright perforated wave absorbers and perforated wall breakwaters. In this paper, a new non-dimensional parameter is introduced to describe the hydraulic characteristics of single perforated sheets. It is shown that the reflection and transmission coefficients of waves through these sheets and also the transmission coefficients of waves through upright perforated wave filters are functions of this parameter.
