Three Dimensional Physical Model Study on Penang Fishing Port Project

Article Preview

Abstract:

A three-dimensional physical model was used to study the wave distribution around breakwater in Malaysia Penang. Model tests were carried out by using the L-type action absorption directional wave generator in a 45m×40m wave basin at TIWTE in Tianjin China. The incident wave conditions were checked first in the laboratory and a series steps were introduced to construct the bathymetry and breakwater structure. By comparing the test results, the improved top elevation of breakwater is +4.5m, and the recommendation length of northern part of breakwater is 65m.
