Introduction

Prediction of wave induced motions and sea loads with the best possible
accuracy is very important in ship design.

Large motions affect operability and safety while large loads can cause
structural damages

IMAM 2011

Introduction cont…..

• Available numerical schemes:

 2D Strip theory (Salvensen, Tuck, Faltinsen)


 3D Frequency domain panel method (WAMIT)
 3D Rankine panel method (SWAN)
 3D Time domain panel method (TiMIT, TD)

Motivation

• Fishing vessels hull forms diverge significantly from the ones of


container ship or large cargo ship

• Smaller in length

• Comparatively high Froude number

• different L/B ratios, block coefficient

• Cross coupling terms are very important

Motivation continued…..

• The computational scheme proposed by Datta and Sen (2007) shows


good agreement with other published results for large ships

• But it has been found to give inadequate results when fishing vessels
are considered

• Therefore, there is a need to introduce some modifications in the


scheme, to go beyond such restrictions.

IMAM 2011
Genoa, September 13th -16th 2011
Objective
• Detect numerical Instability

• Develop and Incorporate numerical scheme in order to remove the


instability

• Compare with other results for validation

In order to do that, lower order panel method is taken for the solution
purpose

Behavior of the Green’s function near free surface

 the body geometry of such vessels is modified near the waterline,


assuming that the validity of the computed response of the ship is
not affected significantly.

 The procedure consists in artificially adding a row of relatively small


vertical panels at the waterline .

Conclusions
• The present method is more generic and appears to be
more robust and efficient

• Results are agree very well with WAMIT for zero speed
which validate the correctness of the present development
at least for zero speed

• From the results, it may be concluded again that for the


heave motions, the slenderness property is important for
the strip theory in the low speed situations, but gradually
the forward speed effect becomes the dominated factor as
speed increased.
