Numerical study of Iran-Bushehr Container Ship motions and added resistance in regular head waves using STAR-CCM+

open access: yesنشریه مهندسی دریا, 2020
Nowadays, the optimal use of energy, speed increase, fuel consumption reduction and environmental pollution prevention are essential in the ship design and manufacturing discussion. So it is critical to be able to estimate ship's response to waves, since

Kinematic Models for Manoeuvring and Seakeeping of Marine Vessels [PDF]

open access: yesModeling, Identification and Control, 2007
The motion of marine vessels has traditionally been studied using two different approaches: manoeuvring and seakeeping. These two approaches use different reference frames and coordinate systems to describe the motion.

Establishment of effective metamodels for seakeeping performance in multidisciplinary ship design optimation

open access: yes, 2016
Ship design is a complex multidisciplinary optimization process to determine configuration variables that satisfy a set of mission requirements. Unfortunately, high fidelity commercial software for the ship performance estimation such as Computational ...

Hybrid method for predicting ship manoeuvrability in regular waves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The ship's manoeuvring behaviour in waves is significantly different from that in calm water. In this context, the present work uses a hybrid method combining potential flow theory and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) techniques for the prediction of ...

An enhanced method for extreme loads analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The analysis of time records, coming from seakeeping experiments in irregular waves, is used to determine the occurrence of extreme events. The common procedure used for data analysis is to assume that the statistics of record\u2019s peaks is following ...

VIRTUE : integrating CFD ship design [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Novel ship concepts, increasing size and speed, and strong competition in the global maritime market require that a ship's hydrodynamic performance be studied at the highest level of sophistication. All hydrodynamic aspects need to be considered so as to
