Lake Erie International Jetport Model Feasibility Investigation. Report 17-10. Nontechnical Summary of Project.
Abstract
A nontechnical summary of the Waterways Experiment Station's (WES) efforts in a model feasibility investigation of a proposed jetport located in Lake Erie offshore Cleveland, Ohio, is presented in this report. This report is intended to present the basic concepts, procedures and results of the WES model feasibility study without technical details. The following items are some of those presented in a format suitable for the nonscientist: (a) scope and objectives of WES study; (b) factors involved in hydrodynamic modeling; (c) lake characteristics and other information required as input for the models; (d) methods for obtaining unavailable data; (e) numerical and physical model evaluation, selection and preliminary design procedures; (f) information obtained from the models; and (g) current status of WES modeling efforts. Detailed technical data and results from WES study were published by WES in a series of 12 reports. These reports are referenced throughout this report in the appropriate and related sections.
