Abstract

When a dredging or reclaiming is carried out in a sea, turbidity is usually generated. To prevent the surrounding sea from pollution by turbidity. Silt curtains are usually used. When the silt curtains are placed in the sea, impact tensional forces are offen generated on upper and lower cables which fix the silt curtain. From the eneineering point of view, it is necessary to estimate the magnitude of the impact force in the design of the silt curtain. In this study, a numerical model for predicting impact force on the cable is proposed, and the applicability of the model is tested through experiment.
