Modeling of dredging works and marine traffic interference assessment

Journal Title: Prace Wydziału Nawigacyjnego Akademii Morskiej w Gdyni - Year 2014, Vol 0, Issue 29

Abstract

This article introduces a model providing an assessment of interdependence of the marine traffic and dredging activity in a port’s areas. This assessment in turn enables to optimize the time schedule of dredging works by coordinating them with a given schedule or with the random pattern of ship’s arrivals. The effectiveness of this type of project (dredging works) depends to a great extent on the proper analysis of the factors hindering the implementation of the project, such as: the vessels traffic, and uninterrupted operation of port terminals. For a better understanding of the problem, the article describes only correlation between dredging works and vessels calling at the harbor. Full form of this issue should describe the interference of the total ship's traffic in port areas, i.e. arrivals and departures. That model is currently under construction and will be described in the following article.
