On the Propulsive Performance of a Ship in Regular Head Waves
When a ship is advanced in a seaway, she usually loses in speed compared with the case in a calm sea under the condition of constant output-power of the main engine. In this paper, a method is presented to evaluate the propulsive performance of the ship by using the calculated results of the heaving and pitching motions in the case where the ship moves
