Abstract
    In this paper, a study is presented to validate a computational model that was developed to calculate passing ship induced waves in confined water. The mode l itself is briefly explained and two experiments to validate it are described.
    The first experiment involves an accelerating barge in a straight channel of constant width. The effect of the acceleration on the generated transient wave is considered. In the second experiment the effect of a vessel passing a constriction in a canal on both the wave height upstream in the canal and the wave height in a harbour alongside the canal are examined.
    A comparison of the computed and measured wave elevation is presented.
