Abstract

Taking the design wave elements prediction of West Kalimantan strait as an example, we adopted two methods, the numerical simulation method and the design wind speed method, to determine the deepwater wave elements of different return period. The results of two methods showed that there are some differences between the two predictions, but the difference is not significant. If there is long-term measured wind data, the design wind speed method is recommended for purpose of convenient. If not, wind and wave numerical simulation method is necessary to be used.
