Extreme Wave-Induced Oscillation in Paradip Port Under the Resonance Conditions

Influence of offshore fringing reefs on infragravity period oscillations within a harbor

“…Gonzá lez-Marco et al (2008) studied the influences of the IG period waves on harbor operations in Gijón Port (Spain) and found that if the IG period waves are present in the wave trains, the port's inactivity time is significantly increased, although very good protection against short wind waves is provided by the harbor. Similar situations were also observed in many other ports and harbors, such as Pohang New Harbor in South Korea (Kumar et al, 2014), Marina di Carrara harbor in Italy (Guerrini et al, 2014), Two Rocks Marina in Australia (Thotagamuwage and Pattiaratchi, 2014), Port of Ferrol in Spain (López and Iglesias, 2013) and Paradip Port in India (Kumar and Gulshan, 2017). Therefore, to relieve the disturbance to harbor operation and minimize possible destructive effects, further research efforts are essential to enhance our present knowledge for the IG period oscillations and thus improve our forecasting ability for the potential adverse effects.…”

Investigation on the effects of Bragg reflection on harbor oscillations

“…Harbor oscillations (also called harbor resonance or seiches) refer to the gathering and magnification of the incident wave energy inside bays or harbors, which can be triggered by atmospheric fluctuations, infragravity waves, tsunami waves, steady-state or transient wave groups, shear flows, or seisms (Bellotti, 2007;De Jong and Battjes, 2004;Fabrikant, 1995;Gao et al, 2017a;Gao et al, 2020;Kumar and Gulshan, 2017;Okihiro and Guza, 1996;Zheng et al, 2021). It may interrupt the operation of docks, create excessive movements of moored ships, cause unacceptable mooring forces, and even lead to the break of mooring lines (Gulshan et al, 2020;Kumar et al, 2016).…”

Mathematical Modelling of Non-Linear Transient Long Waves by using Finite Element Method in an Irregular Shaped Harbour

“…Recently, models have been constructed to study the wave-induced oscillations caused by incoming long or short waves propagating from the open sea towards the realistic harbours using different numerical techniques. For example, a mathematical model based on the boundary element method (BEM) is applied to estimate the wave response inside the Pohang New Harbour in South Korea [20] and Paradip port in India [21][22][23]. FEM and Hybrid FEM are utilized to analyse the wave response inside the Marina di Carrara harbour in Italy [24] and the Pohang New Harbour in South Korea [25], respectively.…”
