Download or read book Numerical Methods for Seakeeping Problems written by Bettar O. el Moctar and published by Springer. This book was released on 2021-02-18 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book describes currently applied and newly developed advanced numerical methods for wave-induced ship motions and loads. Besides well-established computational methods based on strip theory, panel methods and finite volume methods for unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations (URANS), recent advances like a fully nonlinear Rankine panel method, URANS calculations including elastic hull deformations, and an improved method to predict added resistance in waves are explained in detail. Furthermore, statistical methods to assess extreme motions and loads are described both for linear and nonlinear responses in a stationary seaway as well as during long-term ship operations. Results of motions and loads, computed using the various methods, are compared with each other and with results of model experiments. Introductory chapters on fluid dynamics, motions of rigid and elastic ship hulls, numerical methods to compute fluid flows associated with wind waves, and the development and simulation of seaways complement the volume. The book will be of interest to post-graduate students, PhD candidates, as well as engineers in the field of naval architecture, ocean, and marine engineering.

Download or read book The Frequency domain Prediction of Added Resistance of Ships in Waves Using a Near field 3 dimensional Flow Method written by and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Describes work performed on a numerical method for computing ship motion, hydrodynamic pressure distribution, sea loads, and added resistance in waves for a ship with steady forward speed. The method is based on the three-dimensional (3-D) zero-speed Green function in the frequency domain. The 3-D panel method is used in the numerical implementation. Improvement over the 3-D frequency domain program SMCA3 was achieved by including the steady flow effect on the unsteady wave field around the ship hull and by applying analytical formulas and Gaussian quadrature to the integration of the Green function over a flat panel. The new, improved program is called SMCA4. Computed results for three ships are presented and comparisons are made with model test data.
Download or read book SHIPMO7 written by Kevin A. McTaggart and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual describes a new version of the ship motion program SHIPMO, called SHIPMO7. The new version introduces several improvements over previous versions. A new boundary element method for computing sectional hydrodynamic coefficients eliminates problems with irregular frequencies. The revised program computes sea loads, including appendage forces and viscous forces, with special attention to the consistent treatment of forces acting on the ship during both motion and load predictions. The program also has revised input and output format to improve consistency and clarity. SHIPMO7 also gives derived responses, including local accelerations, slamming, deck wetness, motion-induced interruptions, and added resistance in waves. Information is included on running the program, and sample inputs and outputs are appended.

This book was released on 2011-07-03 with total page 840 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last decade significant progress has been made in the field of ship stability. Yet in spite of the progress made, numerous scientific and practical challenges still exist with regard to the accurate prediction of extreme motion and capsize dynamics for intact and damaged vessels, the probabilistic nature of extreme events, criteria that properly reflect the physics and operational safety of an intact or damaged vessel, and ways to provide relevant information on safe ship handling to ship operators. This book provides a comprehensive review of the above issues through the selection of representative papers presented at the unique series of international workshops and conferences on ship stability held between 2000 and 2009. The editorial committee has selected papers for this book from the following events: STAB 2000 Conference (Launceston, Tasmania), 5th Stability Workshop (Trieste, 2001), 6th Stability Workshop (Long Island, 2002), STAB 2003 Conference (Madrid), 7th Stability Workshop (Shanghai, 2004), 8th Stability Workshop (Istanbul, 2005), STAB 2006 Conference (Rio de Janeiro), 9th Stability Workshop (Hamburg, 2007), 10th Stability Workshop (Daejeon, 2008), and STAB 2009 Conference (St. Petersburg). The papers have been clustered around the following themes: Stability Criteria, Stability of the Intact Ship, Parametric Rolling, Broaching, Nonlinear Dynamics, Roll Damping, Probabilistic Assessment of Ship Capsize, Environmental Modelling, Damaged Ship Stability, CFD Applications, Design for Safety, Naval Vessels, and Accident Investigations.

Download or read book Marine Hydrodynamics 40th anniversary edition written by J. N. Newman and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2018-01-26 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A textbook that offers a unified treatment of the applications of hydrodynamics to marine problems. The applications of hydrodynamics to naval architecture and marine engineering expanded dramatically in the 1960s and 1970s. This classic textbook, originally published in 1977, filled the need for a single volume on the applications of hydrodynamics to marine problems. The book is solidly based on fundamentals, but it also guides the student to an understanding of engineering applications through its consideration of realistic configurations. The book takes a balanced approach between theory and empirics, providing the necessary theoretical background for an intelligent evaluation and application of empirical procedures. It also serves as an introduction to more specialized research methods. It unifies the seemingly diverse problems of marine hydrodynamics by examining them not as separate problems but as related applications of the general field of hydrodynamics. The book evolved from a first-year graduate course in MIT's Department of Ocean Engineering. A knowledge of advanced calculus is assumed. Students will find a previous introductory course in fluid dynamics helpful, but the book presents the necessary fundamentals in a self-contained manner. The 40th anniversary of this pioneering book offers a foreword by John Grue.
