Waves on distorted models of outer harbors

Hydrotechnical Construction Aims and scope

Conclusions

  1. 1.

    Investigations of wave regimes of water areas of outer harbors on a distorted model permit increasing the wave turbulence, which is the main requirement for providing conversion of laboratory data to the prototype in wave investigations.

  2. 2.

    The need for introducing corrections to the values of the residual wave height obtained on the model is determined by calculation according to SNiP 2.06.04-82 or by measuring the residual wave heights with consideration of the horizontal scale.

  3. 3.

    The use of a distorted model when investigating the wave regime on the water area of an outer harbor reduces the amount of work on creating the model itself and the time and cost of investigations.
