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.

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 ...

Application of Seakeeping Analysis

Marine Technology and SNAME News, 1978
The paper gives a brief description of modern seakeeping analysis and discusses its application to problems encountered in engineering practice. The authors' experience with the computer program SCORES, for prediction, of ship motion responses, is reviewed, and examples of its application to typical problems are given.

Fast accurate seakeeping predictions

Ship Technology Research, 2020
Accurate predictions of ship motions and loads in a steep seaway require to include contributions depending non-linearly on wave amplitude. CFD methods do that routinely, but they require very high computing effort. Previous potential methods neglect either all or at least some nonlinear effects.

Rankine Source Method for Seakeeping Predictions

Volume 4: Offshore Geotechnics; Ronald W. Yeung Honoring Symposium on Offshore and Ship Hydrodynamics, 2012
Model tests are usually used for the traditional seakeeping predictions (transfer functions of ship motions and loads in regular waves). Experience shows that numerical solution of Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations (RANSE) can provide accurate results for this task, however, such computations require too much computational time for the required

ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF SEAKEEPING CRITERIA

Naval Engineers Journal, 1992
ABSTRACTIn order to determine the effects of ship motion on operational performance, quantitative seakeeping criteria are required. In this paper, we propose that seakeeping criteria should be presented in terms of limits on the incidence of whatever degrading event is determined to curtail the operation of interest, rather than limits on the ...
