| Abstract |
This study aims to present the feasibility to model complex quay wall structures in ROPES, to obtain passing ship forces on a moored ship to be subsequently used in mooring analysis. As a case study, a composite quay wall is modelled. The quay consist of a submerged sheet pile, slightly deviating from vertical position, and whirl chambers constructed atop of the sheet pile. The whirl chambers are sloped spaces, subdivided by vertical walls placed along the berth line. The whirl chambers block the longitudinal flow, while they allow for emptying and filling the chambers by flows perpendicular to the berth line.
The quay model is built following a step-wise approach to control the results of modelling, to correct modelling inaccuracies and to gain confidence in the final results. Different test results and conclusions are presented, as well as unexpected behavior of ROPES as found for some parameters. |
