DEVELOPMENT OF TABLE BAY HARBOUR

This paper describes the physical model study of wave penetration and an investigation of harbor resonance in the existing and proposed lay-outs using a mathematical model. The results of the initial feasibility studies have suggested the use of an offshore breakwater to provide the necessary protection and navigability of two additional outer basins.
