The magnitude of these waves depends mainly on the geometrical and kinematical parameters of the convoy, such as the speed and the hull geometry. The objective of this study is to predict the relationship between these geometrical and kinematical parameters and the amplitude of ship-generated waves as well as the water plane drawdown. Numerical simulations are conducted by solving the 3-D Navier-Stokes equations along with the standard k-c model for turbulent processes. The results are compared first with the empirical model and second with experimental measurements performed by the French company Compagnie National du Rhone (CNR).展开更多

A 3-D numerical model is presented to estimate these effects. The hydrodynamic model is the 3-D Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations including the standard k - ε model while the 3-D convection-diffusion model is for the resuspended sediment transport. This hydro-sedimentary model is firstly validated with the trench experimental results, and then applied to the open channel with a moving ship. The computed results demonstrate that the resuspension generation mainly depends on ship speeds, barge number, and the relative distance away from ship. The acceleration effects of ship on the sediment transport are analyzed as well.展开更多
