Abstract
A numerical model for computing wave propagations between two breakwaters is presented. Each breakwater consists of one or two straight‐line segments. Water depth varies in space. The numerical model is based on the parabolic wave equation approach with a boundary‐fitted coordinate system. Numerical results are obtained and compared with laboratory experimental data. Good agreement is observed.Keywords
