Computation of storm and monsoon wave parameters for sea dyke design in Vietnam

Tóm tắt

    For the coastal zones of Vietnam, the storm and monsoon waves are considered as the maximum waves for the designed of the marine constructions as sea dyke and other constructions in the coast and in the marine areas. The most challenges are to choose the appropriate storm wave model, to formulate the wind input data set and especially to find the wave data in such utmost dangerous sea state for model validation and for analyzing the forecast results. In the report, the authors present the results of the wave model validation, assessments of the computed wave heights accuracy in the storm and monsoon weather. The wave observation by satellite, an optimist source of wave data has been also used. The obtains results are promising for the wave computations, for forecasting in general and for the research task of the project "Determining the wave heights for sea dyke design along the coastal line from Quang Ninh to Quang Nam" in particular.
