Knowledge of component factors and environmental conditions are important factors in designing structures. Ports and Marine Structures, Considering their special status are not exempt from this. Considering these factors makes the usage of proper methods and real analysis and design possible and makes these structures possess acceptable stability against loads and environmental conditions.

Results of studies in this section include:

1- wind and wave surveys; surveyor's level

Study of wind and waves is one of the most important hydrodynamic parameters. The main reason for determining the wind profile is because of creating waves. Determining the type of waves by using the wind profile is a common way to access the wave profile; which is the most important factor in the port specification. Wind profile can be a direct parameter of the structure designs within the port. Wind profile is a very important factor in the projects. This requires appropriate reviews and using data from various sources of wind.

 

• Reviewing data from various sources of wind in project

Wind measurement in meteorology stations and comparing different wind roses.

Measured by afloat

Measured by satellite

Meteorological models

• Selecting wind data base and design based wind rose

Wind design specifications

Reviewing wave data banks in the range of project

BMO

ISWM Project results

Modeling by using the measured wind data

• Selecting basic wave and basic wave rose data around the port and near the mouth

• Determining specifications of designed wave around the port and near the mouth

• Determining the storm surge

 

• Determining the uplift caused by wave

2- Wave penetration studies

 

 

• Reviewing silence of port in current conditions

• Reviewing silence of port as the first item

• Reviewing silence of port as the second item

3- Modeling the Tide processes within the project (sediment modeling prerequisite)

4- Sediment transport studies

Sediment transport characteristics within the project, along the wave profile, plays the most important role in determining the layout of Port and its facilities as well as the usage of different parts of that and eventually results in Port life and dredging period.

By considering the rate and mechanism of sediment transport within the port, the decision about dredging and facilities' layout can be made (along the wave profile).

In this section, such characteristics have been studied.

• Reviewing the process of sediment transport within the project by using hydrographic data and images.

River sediments

Coastal sediments

• Satellite images

• Estimating the amount of coastal sediments
