Optimizing the Seakeeping Performance of Ship Hull Forms Using Genetic Algorithm [PDF]
Hull form optimization from a hydrodynamic performance point of view is an important aspect of ship design. This study presents a computational method to estimate the ship seakeeping in regular head wave. In the optimization process the Genetic Algorithm

Vertical Hull Vibration by a Main Engine in Regular Head Waves
This paper discusses characteristics of vertical hull vibration excited by a main engine in regular head waves. The ship structure is modelled as a Euler beam to have added mass, which is derived from calculated results of ship motion by using the ordinary strip theory.

Bow hull-form optimization in waves of a 66,000 DWT bulk carrier
This paper uses optimization techniques to obtain bow hull form of a 66,000 DWT bulk carrier in calm water and in waves. Parametric modification functions of SAC and section shape of DLWL are used for hull form variation.
