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 …

A new uncertainty quantifier is presented for linear transfer functions of wave-induced ship
motions and loads obtained by various seakee** codes. The numerical simulations are …

Ships have become the main means of transportation in the world trade. With paying more
attention to global warming problems, the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emission reduction of …

Ship hull structural damages are often caused by extreme wave-induced loads. Reliable
load predictions are required to minimize the risk of structural failures. One conceivable …

Three-dimensional time-domain desingularized-Rankine panel (DRP) method has been
developed to compute the added resistance for ships traveling in regular head waves using …

The global responses of a 5530-m-long floating bridge under linear and slowly varying wave
loads were studied. The bridge has modes from seconds to around 2 min. A comparative …

Despite recent moderate oil prices, the reduction in fuel oil consumption of voyaging ships
has been of great interest. Ships experience additional resistance from wind and waves in …

Future state projection is an important prerequisite for the maritime autonomous surface
ships (MASS) to initiate a collision-avoidance manoeuvre. Forecasts of MASS′ trajectories …

A numerical method for solving 3D unsteady potential flow problem of ship advancing in
waves was put forward. The flow field was divided into an inner and an outer domain by …

The motions and added resistance of the S175 containership in regular head waves with
different wave steepness under the same wavelength are investigated using a Reynolds …
