Propagation of ship induced waves on to the Tanjung Piai coastline

Tanjung Piai coastline has been facing critical erosion for years but recently the erosion rate is escalating. Numerical analysis of ship induced waves was carried out to determine the contribution of shipping traffic from Pelabuhan Tanjung Pelepas to the stability of Tanjung Piai coastline. The ana...

Wave heights generated by wind were recorded to be between 1.2 and 1.7 meters with periods ranging from 4 to 8 seconds.

description Tanjung Piai coastline has been facing critical erosion for years but recently the erosion rate is escalating. Numerical analysis of ship induced waves was carried out to determine the contribution of shipping traffic from Pelabuhan Tanjung Pelepas to the stability of Tanjung Piai coastline.

Waves generated by ships decrease gradually when it propagate away from the sailing line and then increase near to the shore due to shoaling and damping factor. Bigger waves break near to the shore but smaller waves reach the shore without breaking. Maximum wave height generated by ships at the shoreline is 0.51 meter and the wave period is 3.23 seconds.
