Linear boundary conditions on free surface and mean wetted body surface are adopted, while the numerical damping method is used for the radiation conditions. The motions of two ships in regular head waves are computed by the present method. The related numerical results are compared with the experiment data and those from linear strip theory. The comparison shows satisfactory agreements for pitch and heave transfer functions.展开更多

In this article, the Rankine sources and dipoles were placed on boundary surfaces （i.e., the ship surface and free surface）, and a time-stepping scheme was employed. Its unique characteristic is that steady state can be realized from initial value by employing the time-stepping scheme and unsteady free surface conditions. In time domain, if the results of unsteady flow problem tend to data stabilization after many time steps of computation, they could be regarded as the data of steady ones. This model could be employed to steady or unsteady problems. Theoretical reasoning and computational process of this method was described in detail The linear and nonlinear boundary conditions on body surface were studied, and the relative means to realize these boundary conditions in iterative computation were also discussed. Some proper parameters about the model of the Wigley hull were determined by many numerical tests, and their influences on wave making resistance and wave pattern were discussed. According to the comparison between numerical results and data available in relative references, the method used in this work is proven to be a reliable method in time domain. And the lattice reorganization in every time step computation is a feasible numerical approach.展开更多
