Abstract

The working ratio of ports has been discussed in detail, if the influence of waves is remarkable. On the other hand, it has not considered if they do not locate open sea areas. First, current port operation is clarified by the nationwide questionnaire. Tidal currents are the main factor that makes ferry operation difficult. The difficulty of ferry berthing is finally estimated by revised numerical simulations. The working ratio due to tidal current is newly defined to compare that due to waves. In the ferry terminal of the Seto Inland Sea, the working ratio due to tidal current is lower than the standard of harbour tranquility. Especially, new port planning is required for small sized ferry ports with strong tidal currents.
