To investigate the hydrodynamic capabilities of the taut floating breakwater,a two-dimensional physical modelling experiment was performed to study the influencing laws of such hydrodynamic characteristics as the hydrodynamic pressure on the front surface of the box,tension of mooring line and transmission coefficient under regular waves,considering factors such as mooring angle,pre-tension of mooring line and relative width of the floating box.The results show that,with the increase of the mooring angle,the hydrodynamic pressure on the front surface of the box first increases and then decreases;the tension of mooring line first increases and then decreases slightly;and the transmission coefficient obviously decreases.As the pre-tension of the mooring line increases,the hydrodynamic pressure on the front surface of the box and the tension of the mooring line increase,and the transmission coefficient first decreases and then increases.As the relative width of the floating box increases,the hydrodynamic pressure on the box,tension of mooring line and transmission coefficient all show a decreasing trend.The results can provide a reference for the design and safety assessment of taut mooring single pontoon floating breakwaters.
