The effect of tides and vessel parameters of fishing boat generated waves

Ship generated waves (SGW) can cause bank erosion as well as disturbance to moored boats especially in the river at estuary due to the restricted area, very high boat traffic and shallow water. In this river, the dominant environmental effect is tidal, but unfortunately in-depth investigation of thi...
