(CT). The physical modeling of the SCPFB is was conducted at the Ocean Wave Research Laboratory in Institut Teknologi Bandung in a 2D wave flume to measure the breakwater’s transmission coefficient in the intermediate water depth condition The waves generated in the wave flume were monochromatic. The scaling applied the principle of Froude similarity, where the Froude number of the model equaled to the Froude number of the prototype. Wave heights and wave periods data were observed by both visual observation and wave probes. The incoming wave heights and transmitted wave heights before and after the SCPFB, respectively, were measured and processed to obtain the CT. The relationships between CT and non-dimensional variables such as the relative incident wave steepness, water depth, and curtain draft were obtained. Comparisons with similar research are shown.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Intermediate water depth,Single curtain pile foundation breakwater,Transmission coefficient[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]The author would like to thank the British Petroleum of Indonesia for funding this research.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.21660/2018.43.43946[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
