Redesign of Entrance Structures for Two Small Craft Harbors in Ohio
Publication: Coastal Engineering 1984
Abstract
Wildwood Harbor and Chagrin River are two areas on Lake Erie at which intensive boating activities occur throughout the recreational months of April through October. At Wildwood Harbor an enclosed basin exists with a relatively open mouth which allows excessive wave activity to enter. At Chagrin River a major project was recently completed to stabilize the river entrance which had experienced substantial shoaling, and to help prevent winter ice blockage; however, significant reflected waves resulted from this construction affecting navigation. Physical models were constructed of both sites to simulate present conditions, and to evaluate solution alternatives. This paper discusses the model construction, studies conducted with them, and alternatives that were evolved to solve the problems.
