PHYSICAL MODEL TEST OF THE MOORED CONTAINER SHIP MOTION AND THE RELATED INDUCED MOORING FORCE
Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1986 To optimize structure design it is useful to conduct detail physical model tests. Tests of various basic physical phenomena (e.g. resonance problems), reproducing a sea state of prototype duration and then from the behavior of entire structure, the optimal design to the wharf structure will be obtained.
