... a passing ship and a free-floating small/medium size ice floe based on the boundary element method (BEM). The influences of added mass and hydrodynamic damping are explored for different wave frequencies and headings. Results are presented for a regular waves scenario whereby a tanker progressing at a slow...

... be stressed. In this context, this paper proposes a hybrid method for predicting ship maneuverability in regular waves by combining a potential flow theory based panel method and a Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS)-based computational fluid dynamics method. The mean wave drift forces are evaluated...

... breaking, which in turn causes the reduction in wave energy. The dynamic pressures and forces exerted on the submerged SBW with 7%, 11%, and 17% of the exposed surface area with perforations on its seaside due to regular waves were measured. The hydrodynamic characteristics such as variations...
