Voyage optimization is a practice to select the optimum route for the ship operators to
increase energy efficiency and reduce Green House Gas emission in the shipping industry …

The prediction of the added resistance of ships in waves is a demanding, quasi-second-
order seakeeping problem of high practical interest. In the present paper, a well established …

In this paper we develop and explore various simple semi-empirical formulations for the fast,
but satisfactory estimation of the added resistance of ships in head waves. Relevant …

This article focuses on the use of an artificial neural network to estimate added resistance in
regular head waves while using ship design parameters, such as length, breadth, draught or …

Added resistance in short and long regular head waves for four different ship types was
systematically and extensively investigated using Reynold-averaged Navier Stokes solvers …

In order to estimate ship speed in actual seas it is important to calculate added resistance in
waves with accuracy. Added resistance in waves usually appends the effect of wave …

This paper presents a comparative study of wave-induced motion responses and the added
resistance of a ship. Four representative types of ships are adopted as test models: LNG …

In this paper, the added resistance of a large tanker is estimated experimentally and
numerically in oblique sea. Experiments on ship motion response and added resistance in …

This paper proposes a semi-empirical model to estimate a ship's speed loss at head sea. In
the model, the formulas to estimate a ship's added resistance due to waves have been …

Recently, the design of commercial ships that produce less greenhouse gas has been of
great interest in naval architecture fields. Ship designers are asked to find optimum hull …
