DEVELOPMENT OF CIP BASED NUMERICAL METHOD FOR PREDICTION OF NONLINEAR WAVE LOADS ON REAL SHIPS

摘要

A CFD code has been developed for numerical simulation of a container ship in large waves by the CIP (Constrained Interpolation Profile ) based numerical method. Recently obtained numerical results on a latest post-Panamax container ship model moving in large-amplitude regular waves for various wave lengths and wave angles, are presented in this paper. The frequency response characteristics of the wave-induced motions and the wave loads on three cross-sections of the ship, including the bending moments and the shear forces, are compared to the experiments and the results obtained by potential flow theory based numerical methods.
