The prediction of ship motions and quiescent periods, is of paramount importance for the
maritime industry. The capability to predict these events sufficiently in advance has the …

We present computational methods to reliably predict second order forces and moments
acting on ships in waves. Second order forces and moments are useful to assess a number …

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 …

The 2012 guidelines on the method of calculation of the attained Energy Efficiency Design
Index (EEDI) for new ships, MEPC. 212 (63), as updated by MEPC 245 (66) in April 2014 …

A new Rankine panel method and an extended Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS)
solver were employed to predict added resistance in head waves at different Froude …

The race of taking more cargo on a ship has increased the size of ships as well as other
aspects, such as their capacity and structural complexity, which affect the stability of ships …

A numerical method to simulate ship manoeuvring in waves is presented. The method
solves the six degrees of freedom (DoF) nonlinear equations of motion described in an …

This paper addresses the connection between added wave resistance and required
propulsion power of ships, having focus on the early stage of new ship designs, notably …

The main transport channel of the global economy is represented by shipping. Engineers
and hull designers are more preoccupied in ensuring fleet safety, the proper operation of the …

Linear boundary element methods generally provide accurately enough predictions of ship
motions in small amplitude waves. However, when the wave-induced added resistance is …
