The problem of seakeeping

Applicable Analysis, 1994
We consider the unsteady motion of a rigid body floating in a basin under the action of gravity, of the water pressure and of other prescribed extenrnal forces. The system is assumed to be initially in a rest position of equilibrium and the linear model is adopted.

Seakeeping

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A: Physical and Engineering Sciences, 1991
It is well known that ship performance is degraded in rough weather. In moderately severe conditions every task on board the ship will take longer than it does in calm weather. The passengers and crew may be seasick and they will have to take more care when moving around the ship to avoid injury.

Viscosity in Seakeeping

International Journal of Maritime Engineering, 2018
Application of strip theory for the prediction of ship motions in waves relies on sectional hydrodynamic coefficients; i.e. the added mass and damping coefficients. These coefficients apply to linearised problems and are normally computed for inviscid fluids.

SEAKEEPING BY DESIGN

Naval Engineers Journal, 1980
ABSTRACT“Seakeeping … is the ability of our ships to go to sea, and Successfully and safely execute their missions despite adverse environmental factors.”— VAdm. R.E. Adamson. USNIn June 1975, VAdm. R.E. Adamson, USN, then Commander Naval Surface Forces, U.S. Atlantic Fleet, addressed the participants of the Seakeeping Workshop [1] and established what

Assessment of Seakeepability

Marine Technology and SNAME News, 1966
This paper attempts to apply presently available knowledge of ship model behavior in regular waves to the prediction of trends of ship performance in realistic irregular wave patterns. Performance is studied in the terms of tendency to ship water forward and to slam, and of magnitude of heaving accelerations.

ACC Stability and Seakeeping

2020
On stability we have two main subjects to address in this chapter; that of displacement vessel stability as affected by the presence of a thin air layer at the keel; and the stability of air cavity planing craft. An air cavity planing craft requires consideration of both stability at rest in displacement mode and when travelling at design speed when ...

Seakeeping and Manoeuvrability

2009
WIG seakeeping and manoeuvrability includes the following topics: Longitudinal and transverse motions travelling over waves, including heaving, rolling, and pitching displacement and accelerations.
