Event Info
In the present lecture, we will first briefly outline advanced methods for calculating the added resistance in waves, like Maruo’s far-field method in connection with the Kochin functions approach, as well as the near-field, direct pressure integration method, as implemented by self developed numerical codes of the Ship Design Laboratory of NTUA (Papanikolaou et al, 1987, Liu et al 2010). For the short waves range, we recommend simpler, semi-empirical methods, which are further developments (Liu-Papanikolaou, 2015) of the original methods of Faltinsen et al. (1980), Kuroda et al. (2008) and Tsujimoto et al. (2008). A wide range of case studies of different hull forms (slender and bulky) was used to validate the applicability and the accuracy of the developed and implemented methods in practice.
