Research Abstract |
The main aim of the present research is to improve the prediction accuracy of ship motions in oblique following waves. For that purpose, a new theoretical method of predicting the wave exciting forces acting on a ship travelling in the following waves was developed taking account of three-dimensionality of fluid motion around the ship. Besides, the radiation forces, that is to say, the added mass and damping forces and moments due to wave-making were calculated ina similar manner taking into account the three-dimensionality of fluid motion. Making use of both numerical results of radiation forces and diffraction forces, the lateral motions, that is to say, sway, yaw, and roll of a ship travelling in the following waves were calculated and compared with the experimental results of free-sailing model tests. As the result, it was found that the present method can provide the numerical prediction of lateral motions which is more accurate than those predicted by the so-called Strip Method.
