The diffraction problem of two kinds of shallow water waves, cnoidal waves and solitary waves, around a group of cylinders is discussed. A Bessel coordinate transformation is employed to uniform the coordinate system, and thus the boundary condition on each cylinder's surface can be satisfied by determining the coefficients in the solution. Several examples are calculated for two kinds of incident wave and various arrangement of the cylinders, and the results are discussed and compared with the available experimental data.
