Ocean Basin

Ocean Basin

25 m  x  18 m  x  1 m deep

Used for testing a variety of marine structures (wave energy convertors, floating wind platforms, coastal structures, oil & gas platforms). It has capacity for adding a 2.5 m deep section and it can produce real and simulated sea states. The wave generation peaks at Hs = 0.16 m, Tp = 1.4 s and Hmax = 0.32 m.
