Abstract : The present study delves into the intricate dynamics of wave propagation and its consequential impacts on the harbor of the Chennai port. This research undertakes a comprehensive analysis employing two distinct yet complementary methodologies: a Mathematical approach and a Physical approach. The Mathematical aspect is meticulously simulated utilizing the cutting-edge MIKE 21 software, with a particular focus on Boussinesq wave equation (BW). This equation is renowned for its specialization in near shore conditions, thereby facilitating a profound investigation into the wave tranquility within the Chennai port harbor. This study is distinctly geared towards attaining optimal tranquility conditions at the berths through a thorough examination of the efficiency of breakwaters. By juxtaposing the results obtained from both the Mathematical and Physical models, a nuanced understanding emerges regarding the disparities in tranquility achieved through each approach. Consequently, this comparative analysis enables the identification of the most suitable parameters that ought to be implemented for ensuring the utmost stability and tranquility within the harbor environment.

Keywords : Wave Propagation, MIKE 21 Software, Physical Modelling, Mathematical Modelling, Comparative Analysis, Wave Tranquility.
