A Study on Barge-Bank Interaction Forces Considering the Reflected Waves
Because of the relative location between the ship and the bank, the fluid flow becomes complicated such that unstable hydrodynamic forces result in the yaw movement of the ship in an unintended direction.

Mechanical Mechanism and Dynamic Characteristics of Barge–Whole Bridge Collision Behaviours
Collision between a moving ship and a bridge in inner rivers is a frequent occurrence that seriously endanger the safety of the bridge. Existing studies mostly address the action of a ship colliding with a bridge pier that is used as a substitution of ...

Motion Control System Design for Barge-Type Surface Ships Using Tugboats
Barge ships are designed to transport and assemble heavy and massive pieces of equipment at sea. Active propulsion systems are not installed in this type of ship, so the desirable motion and positioning of these ships can only be achieved with the ...

THE SIMULATION OF SKEG EFFECT TO BARGE RESISTANCE CALCULATION USING CFD-RANS OPENFOAM
The paper discusses the significance of different types of skegs in a barge toward the pressure, fluid velocity and the ship total resistance. There are three kinds of skeg configurations: barge without skegs, skegs without deflection, and skegs with ...
