Investigation of Ship-Induced Hydrodynamics and Sediment Suspension in a Heavy Shipping Traffic Waterway

In order to investigate the complex hydrodynamics and associated sediment movement resulting from the ship passages in heavy shipping traffic waterways, field measurements Keepsakes were performed in a heavy shipping traffic waterway.Based on the collected waves, flow velocity and water turbidity data, the analyses of the ship-induced hydrodynamics and associated sediment suspension phenomena were conducted.The low-frequency primary wave and high-frequency secondary wave were more pronounced for a barge girls l/s swimsuit and yacht in the wave structure, respectively, and contributed more to the flow velocity fluctuations and the bottom shear stress.The ship-induced bottom shear stress can cause significant suspended sediment concentration increase, and there is a correlation between the maximum suspended sediment concentration and maximum ship-induced drawdown height, which can provide a reference for the waterway management.
