A study on the characteristics of high-speed ship waves in restricted waterways was conducted numerically and experimentally. The Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equation with two-equation turbulence models were adopted in the calculation. Volume of Fluid (VOF) model was used to capture the free surface. Ship waves with vertical bank were calculated and validated by the experimental data. Ship waves with slope shores and the interaction with shore were also simulated. The runup and rundown phenomenal, and the influence of the channel geometry, ship speed and water depth on wave characteristics were discussed. Calculation results indicate, the slope of shore have no significant effect on the maximum wave height within a certain range. The water depth Froude number Frh really affect the wave characteristic in restricted waters.
