Seakeeping of High Speed Craft. (Presented at) WEGMT School on Small Craft211 (25th). Held in Athens, Greece on October 6-11, 1997

摘要

In this paper an overview will be presented of some of the specific design211u001easpects and the pros and contras of the various high speed design concepts with 211u001erespect to their hydrodynamic behavior and more in particular their behavior in 211u001ewaves. Special attention will be given to the nonlinear behavior of fast craft 211u001ewith respect to the waves. This will be demonstrated using as an example the 211u001emotions of a fast planing monohull in waves. Various sources of the nonlinear 211u001ebehavior will be discussed. The implications of nonlinear behavior with respect 211u001eto operability will be discussed.
