Effect of Ship-generated Waves on Moored Ships

In overseas,the passing ship phenomenon is of particular concern in the design of mooring system of berth which is alongside shipping fairways and channel.The load produced by ship-generated waves on the moored ships includes the longitudinal force,lateral force moment.But,such ship load is still not mentioned in our country’s design code.It is introduced a method to calculate the forces and moment produced by the passing ship on the moored ships.The essential feature of the forces,moment and the serviceability of the method have also been discussed.
