The results of scale-model simulation of wave-induced hull motions of large bulk carriers under conditions representative of those for coastal ports are presented and discussed to illustrate their usefulness in studies aimed at evaluating the optimum depth requirements for port approach channels.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
