Wuebben, James L. | Brown, Wendy M. | Zabilansky, Leonard J.
This report examines the physical effects of vessel passage with variations in vessel size as they might impact upon the Great Lakes Connecting Channels. Effect considered include drawdown and surge, ship waves, and propeller wash. The report serves as a guide to the effects of vessel size and points out geographical areas where a change in vessel size could influence sediment transport and shore structure damage.
