Description
Summary:and a barge-tug unit. It is found that ship induced flow is
based on the comparison of energy from ship induced flow and
compared with the data from the corresponding field
compute the energy of the flow induced by a high speed boat
effects of wave action on bank erosion along the Gulf

improvements in accuracy are gained for the prediction of

the major cause of the bank erosion along the Gulf
This study is part of a research project to assess the
