PHYSICAL AND NUMERICAL MODELLING OF WAVE FIELD IN FRONT OF THE CONTAINER TERMINAL PEAR - PORT OF RIJEKA (ADRIATIC SEA)

The results of the performed research of wave characteristics in front of the Rijeka Port, after the planned execution of the Container Terminal Pier, are presented. For further development and increase of the container traffic in Rijeka Port – Croatia (Fig. 1) it is necessary to create new operational areas. Marine construction works for Container Terminal Pier extends approximately 720 m in length along the coast line, having maximum breadth of approximately 180 m. Deck structure was designed as a monolith concrete plate, having sea-front crown at +4.05 masl. Supporting structure consisted of concrete caissons designed and arranged in number of rows (along the coastline) and columns (perpendicular to the coastline) to maintain structural integrity of the construction. In between caisson rows and columns, armor slope was designed to dissipate incident wave energy.
