    Computer Modelling of Wave Propagation in Coastal Areas and Harbours

    New search for: Mathiesen, Martin

    Abstract Most of the computer wave models used in port and harbour studies have been developed over the past 15 – 20 years but the basic ideas behind some of the models can be traced back a 100 years or so. It is now fair to say that the use of numerical methods makes it possible to give a good description of ocean waves as they travel inshore: along the shipping lane, at the harbour entrance and within the harbour itself. As a result, by use of such models we can study most aspects of wave motions related to port and harbour design, i.e. both short and long period wave motions which effect the behaviour of moored ships.
