ABSTRACT: The design optimization of floating breakwaters implicates solving a multidisciplinary problem consisting from three parts. The first one arises from the interaction of linear waves with a moored floating breakwater with a leeward boundary composed from a vertical wall. The second covers the dynamical behaviour of the structure; while the third concerns its structural mechanics. Next, the optimization problem is summarized by designing an optimal resistive breakwater with a minimum weight. The imposed constraints cover the floating condition, the stability, the maximum wave height in the port side, and the limitations for the mechanical stresses
