Application of Tidal Current Observation and Prediction to the Water Area in Front of Wharf Apron
Abstract：To meet the nee prediction, three methods d of the present harbor engineering for precise tidal current including quasi-harmonic analysis, fluid dynamic-mathematic model and least square method have been applied to predict the tidal current in the water area in front of the wharf apron. By comparing the three methods, the least square method holds the best for the tidal current prediction in the small-scaled water areas. By means of this method as well as by analyzing the data observed both at fixed stations and by the way of drifting, the prediction of tidal current has been made for the fixed sta- tions in the water area in front of the wharf apron.
