A number of industrial activities, dealing with ocean engineering and navigation, would take benefit from a wave attenuation device with low manufacturing and maintenance costs, and able to resist severe weather and environmental conditions.

We shall discuss here the abilities of an immersed horizontal plate, located a few meters under the free surface.

This device, under specific conditions, produces an "oscillating water wall” phenomenon. The volume of fluid located under the plate moves back and forth, and behaves like a perfect wave reflector.
