A Rankine panel method was developed for the solution of the problem. The side-hulls were treated as lifting bodies and circulation was introduced into the flow field to implement the asymmetrical flow around each side hull. The linearized free surface condition was used. The appropriate treatment for transom-stern ship was also discussed. Additionally, a test was performed to quantify the resistance and especially the interference between the main and side hulls. The numerical results are in good argeement with experimental data.展开更多

One of the methods is the superposition method of the vibration mode based on fluid slosh in container. Another one is the joining method of the MAC results with the shallow wave theory calculation in time domain. As a practical example, it is conducted to the numerical calculation about 1000 ton TNT equivalent explosion within touch of water surface. The results show that it can be rationally described with the methods to the wavemaking progress and character. The numerical results are identical with the observed scene on the spot experiment. The methods are simple and applicable in the engineering design.展开更多

Utilizing the polynomial expansion of sin[(t-τ)] , the similarity between φ2 and φ3 is discovered and thus a simpler differential relation between them is obtained. Applying this relation, the amount of work in calculation of φ3 which is the most time-consuming one will be reduced significantly. It is favorable not only for dealing with unsteady wave- making problems but also for solving the steady ones in virtue of evading a major difficulty which has to be encountered during the evaluation of an improper inte- gral containing a singularity in the Green's function. The limitation of this new technique turns out to be its slower convergence as the Froude number is lower.展开更多
