Review of the literature on tidal optimization by the Mike21 model

The navigation environment of the Jiangsu section Yangtze River is complex, and full utilization port water depth resources an important guarantee for safety a favorable condition accurate tidal forecasting. Improving pilotage safety, forecasting crucial ship operation efficiency, nearshore engineering. Tidal can help ensure safe large ports. At present, various numerical models used domestically internationally only focus on impact tides currents in coastal areas. There little research optimization narrow curved long channels such as River, there are also few researchers using MIKE software to simulate levels, flow velocities, directions. This article provides comprehensive study algorithms, current status at home abroad, problems that need be solved optimization, Mike21.
