Validation of a Risk-Based Numerical Model for Predicting Deep-Draft Underkeel Clearance
The channel analysis and design evaluation tool (CADET) is a numerical program to determine the optimum dredge depth for the offshore portions of entrance channels. A brief description of the theoretical basis and risk assessment in CADET is presented. Validation comparisons between CADET predictions and field measurements of wave-induced vertical motions at Ambrose Channel, New York, are presented. Prototype ship motions were measured with a differential global positioning system in April 1998 along three 488-m-long reaches. Comparisons were made with six ships, three tankers and three containerships, during inbound and outbound transits. In general, the CADET predictions matched the field measurements reasonably well, especially considering the wave heights were relatively small during the measurement period.
