...Xueliang Wen; Jianan Zhang; Alejandro García Conde; Muk Chen Ong The ballast control of a floating dock mainly relies on manual operations, which can be time-consuming and requires skilled workers. This study proposes an automatic ballast control system for floating docks, which improves...

.... The performance characteristics of bottom-fixed SCB in the presence of a floating dock are investigated under the framework of linear wave theory. The edge conditions such as continuity of velocity and pressure along the SCB and zero-flow condition near rigid surfaces are adopted. The multi-domain boundary...
