For the new multipurpose terminal of the Port of Leixoes, presently under construction on the inner side of the Leixoes south breakwater, a gravitic type solution was chosen. The solution is based on the superposition of unreinforced concrete blocks, with an innovative and patented geometry – NOREF Blocks. These blocks make possible the construction of an open berthing face (less reflective), which aims t...
Moored ship behavior inside harbors, and therefore the operational and security conditions at a port terminal, does not have a straightforward relationship with the local environmental conditions. Due to the diversity and complexity of the involved phenomena, physical modeling is an essential tool to deal with this kind of issues. After the presentation of the Leixoes Oil Terminal, a brief description of the ma...
