Artificial reef designed by MIT engineers could protect marine life, reduce storm damage

Engineers designed an ‘architected’ reef that can mimic the wave-buffering effects of natural reefs while providing pockets for marine life. The sustainable and cost-saving structure could dissipate more than 95 percent of incoming wave energy using a small fraction of the material normally needed.
