Added Resistance of a VLCC in Short Waves

open access: yes29th International Conference on Ocean, Offshore and Arctic Engineering: Volume 3, 2010
In quantifying speed loss due to waves, added resistance in short waves plays an important role, because most of the time a ship travels in small sea states. It is known that added resistance in small sea states is difficult to predict accurately. In order to study improved prediction methods, numerical calculations and experiments on added resistance ...

A Study on the Added Resistance Performance of Catamarans in Waves

open access: yesVolume 11A: Honoring Symposium for Professor Carlos Guedes Soares on Marine Technology and Ocean Engineering, 2018
The added resistance of a catamaran advancing in waves is investigated in the framework of a non-viscous potential theory. A linear Boundary Element Method (BEM) is used for the first order seakeeping prediction and the mean longitudinal component of the second-order steady-state force is computed by using a near-field method.

Evaluation of Added Resistance of KVLCC2 in Short Waves

Journal of Hydrodynamics, 2011
The added resistance of KVLCC2 in short and regular head waves has been studied theoretically and experimentally. Model tests are performed to determine how well the asymptotic formula (Faltinsen et al. 1980) predicts the typical level of added resistance in short waves.

Estimation of added resistance of an LNG carrier in oblique waves

Ocean Engineering, 2021
Abstract Despite recent moderate oil prices, the reduction in fuel oil consumption of voyaging ships has been of great interest. Ships experience additional resistance from wind and waves in actual seas during their voyages, and those added resistance contributes the increase of fuel consumption.

Added resistance and seakeeping performance of trimarans in oblique waves [PDF]

open access: yesOcean Engineering, 2020
Trimaran added resistance and seakeeping performance in oblique waves with strong nonlinearity are rarely investigated. This paper presents the numerical investigations on them by applying a hybrid method, called the QaleFOAM.

A Parametric Prediction of Added Resistance in Waves

open access: yes, 2012
The added resistance in waves is, from a practical viewpoint, a key issue when selecting the propulsive plant of ships. Despite the fact that normal sea conditions correspond very rarely to calm water, most of the optimisation work performed at a design stage on the hull and on the propulsion system of ships relates to the calm sea condition.
