ABSTRACT
Waves
parameters in water area of a projected port are normally obtained by the
physical and numerical modeling.The physical modeling allows to define the
structural details of the port’s facilities and provides with the information
for an appropriate numerical model selection.The nearshore
hydrodynamic fields are produced by the nonlinear interactions of the shoaling
waves of different time scales and currents. To simulate the wind wave
propagated to the coasts, wave generated nearshore currents,
nonlinear-dispersive wave transformation and wave diffraction in interaction
with coastal and port structure, sediment transport and coastal erosion, the
chains of the models should be used. The
open source models WaveWatch III and SWAN has been used to simulate wave
statistics of the dedicated areas of the studied coastal areas in high
resolution to calculate the statistical parameters of the extreme wave
approaching coastal zone construction in accordance with coastal engineering standards.
