The present study is to investigate the effect of wave-structure interaction such as wave oscillation. The theoretical method is based upon the linear diffraction theory obtained by the boundary element method. The water depth and incident wave period in fluid region are assumed to be constant. To investigate the wave interaction due to offshore structures, the numerical program has been developed and the simulation has been carried out by varying the conditions of distance and width of offshore structures. This study can effectively be utilized for safety assessment to various breakwater systems and layout of offshore breakwater in the ocean and coastal field. It can give information for the safety to construct offshore structure and revetment in coastal region.
