Lay-out planning of Harbour &
Coastal Engineering Structures
Laboratory model tests of lay-out of
port and coastal engineering structures are carried out in a
3-D wave basin, with simulation of regular and irregular
waves and littoral currents.
Tests include measuring of:
- waves / water level parameters
- diffraction
- over-toping
- run-up / set-up
- long waves / seiches
