c. Goodyear Breakwater . The Goodyear module tests by Giles and Sorensen 

 (1978) also included an evaluation of the breakwater mooring loads. Data from 

 those experiments are plotted in Figures 51 and 52 for the case corresponding 

 most nearly to the conditions in the present study (i.e., for the six-module- 

 beam Goodyear breakwater that is also 12.2 meters wide). The curves shown in 

 Figures 51 and 52 indicate that F is proportional to H 2 ; the correspond- 

 ing force coefficient K is listed in Table 4. The hyperbolic relationship 

 between F and H adequately describes the data.
