The Way

Taizhou Bay is an estuary with high tidel range, middle tidal current and low sediment concentration. For the sea floor is very dense, it is stable in the usual water regimen. The numerical model is introduced to simulate the suspended sediment transport in Taizhou Bay. And the recent hydrologic data and the seabed change have been validated by the numerical model. The movement of tidal current and sediment in Dagagn Bay are simulated, and the sediment siltation in port designed is calculated by the model. The results show that the sediment source is from the shoal produced by the ebb current, and the sediment silting is decreased two-thirds by the cofferdam back of the bay, because the way of the suspended sediment is stopped by the cofferdam from the shoal to the harbor.

The Moment

In this paper first a numerical model is described concerning the velocity distribution in an oscillatory flow, respectively without and with resultant current . From the momentaneous velocity gradients eddy viscosities are derived . Using the approach of VANONI [13 , a numerical model is given for the calculation of sediment concentration and suspended sediment transport. In order to give reliable results, the bed-load concentration should be known This will be investigated in the future; at the moment the model only provides qualitative results.
