APPLICATION OF THE HIGH-SPEED SLENDER BODY THEORY TO

MOTION ESTIMATION FOR CATAMARANS
DUAN Wen-yang1 , HE Wu-zhou2
(1. Department of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, Harbin Engineering University; 2. School of Civil Engineering, Tsinghua University)

Abstract: A numerical method is presented for predicting the motion characteristics of high-speed displacement
catamarans in waves. The method is based on the high-speed slender body theory, so called 2-1/2D theory, where
the free-surface condition is 3D but the control equation and body surface condition are 2D. The transient
free-surface Green function is used to formulate the integral equation on the body surface. The numerical
predictions are compared with experimental results of a twin-hull NPL ship, as well as theoretical results by the
strip method. The results show that the present method can satisfactorily predict the motion response
characteristic for high-speed displacement catamarans, but the strip theory cannot give rational result, because
hydrodynamic interference phenomena would happen at some discrete frequencies when applying the strip theory
to the calculation of hydrodynamic coefficients of multiple cylinders.
