Executive Summary | This paper discusses ship motions moored at a quay wall as the harbour calmness index. Cargo handling at a wharf may occasionally be interrupted and/or suspended if ship motions exceed the allowable ones. The wharf operation efficiency, then, should be defined based on the allowable ship motions for cargo handling in terms of the type and size of a ship and cargo handling equipment. |
