Computational fluid dynamics for ship hydrodynamics has made monumental progress over
the last ten years, which is reaching the milestone of providing first-generation simulation …

In this study, three different hybrid numerical frameworks of potential and viscous flows are
developed for ship maneuvering in waves, including a direct CFD simulation method based …

The need for fully physics-based nonlinear solvers such as URANS CFD solvers is imminent
to evaluate extreme ship responses in a seaway. However, such computations are very time …

The seakeeping ability of ships is one of the aspects that needs to be assessed during the
design phase of ships. Traditionally, potential flow calculations and model tests are …

This paper shows the recent work of the authors in the development of a time-domain FEM
model for evaluation of the seal dynamics of a surface effect ship. The fluid solver developed …

Traditionally, ship maneuvering is analyzed under calm water condition. In a more realistic
scenario, such as a ship sailing in waves, the importance of taking the wave effects into …

1. Review, from an interdisciplinary perspective, the current status of CFD in areas of
importance to ITTC. Include resistance, propulsion, propulsors, manoeuvring, steep and …

1. SUMMARY CFD free running simulation of KVLCC2 is conducted for self-propulsion and
turning and zigzag maneuvers in calm water at Fr= 0.142. The simulations are performed …

The need for a more realistic prediction of the ship manoeuvres has stressed the importance
to incorporate wave effects in mathematical manoeuvring models. Wave effects are not only …

Section 2.1 presents the governing equations, based on potential flow and incompressible
fluid, of the wave problem. First, the general governing equations are presented. Second …
