The influence of forward speed and nonlinearities on the dynamic behaviour of a container ship in regular waves

摘要

The aim of this paper is to compare the heave and pitch motions for the S175 containership obtained from frequency domain linear and time domain partly nonlinear potential flow analyses. The frequency domain methods comprise the pulsating and the translating pulsating Green’s function methods, with the relevant source distribution over the mean wetted surface of the hull.
