Comparative Study of Water-Impact Problem for Ship Section and Wedge Drops

摘要

A comparative study of a water-entry problem was conducted as a focused session of ISOPE-2016, Rhodes by the International Hydrodynamic Committee (IHC) of ISOPE. Thirteen institutions participated, and twenty different numerical results were investigated and compared with one another and with model test data. Some promising results were obtained even though there is still a long way to go to draw general conclusions. Four numerical cases were investigated, and several measures of comparison have been discussed.
