Abstract
⸠Interaction of waves with multiple surface-piercing membrane breakwaters is analyzed. ⸠Initially the problem is studied for a single membrane wave barrier. ⸠The case of multiple membranes breakwaters is studied using wide-spacing approximation. ⸠The deflection of the membrane reduces with the increase of the stiffness of the mooring lines. ⸠The multiple floating breakwaters help the reduction of wave height in the transmitted region.
