Resumen de Effect of Diffracted Waves on Harbor Resonance
Wave exposure and disturbance are important factors in harbor design. The difracted waves afect the harbor resonance. The wave model RIDE was applied to study the harbor resonance characteristics. The model predictions were compared with the results of two physical experiments and previous numerical studies. Twelve cases were studied for eight diferent layouts.
The wave model RIDE was applied to the port of Filyos and the fshing port of Kilimli on the western Black Sea coast of Turkey. Comparisons between numerical simulations for diferent layouts and wave conditions showed that the amplifcation of wave height in the basin could be signifcantly reduced for resonant modes by difracting the waves.
