Boussinesq-type wave modelling in port applications: Workability assessment with TRITON, a Boussinesq-type wave model

The workability of floating construction equipment is one of the elements in the construction phasing of the design of the Ashdod port extension in the south of Israel by DHV Consultancy and Engineering. Waves play an important role in the workability of floating equipment, since they induce motions to floating equipment with the possibility of...

Improved calculation method for the workability during pipe laying: Composition of a standard format

To support cost calculations for tendering a pipe lay project, the influence of weather conditions has to be incorporated by applying workability predictions for the pipe lay vessel. When assuming constant good weather conditions it is possible to accurately determine the duration of an offshore pipe lay project. In practice however, changing...
