Answer: |
The Wavebrake works by disrupting the laminar flow of the wave and the resulting turbulence extracts the energy from the wave by a "canceling effect". The energy is absorbed by this action and the wave is attenuated. Energy is not directed in other directions to cause damage in another area. The multi-faceted shape of the individual cubes, when connected, provides a porous face that accepts the wave, and channels the water into the porous cavities between the modules. This space contains the turbulence and extracts the wave forces by a "canceling effect". |
