Ships sailing through cold regions frequently encounter floe ice fields. An air-bubble system that reduces friction between the hull and ice floes is thus considered useful for the reduction of ice-induced resistance. In this study, a numerical analysis ...

Limited navigation depth, especially on inland waterways, is one of the main limiting factors that shorten the navigation period. Distributed propulsion systems represent an opportunity to increase the navigability of ships across critical sections of wa...

The use of ventilated hulls is rapidly expanding. However, experimental and numerical analyses are still very limited, particularly for high-speed vessels and for stepped planing hulls. In this work, the authors present a comparison between towing tank t...

In this paper, we revisit the hydrodynamics supporting the design and development of the RiverCat class of catamaran ferries operating in Sydney Harbor since 1991. More advanced software is used here. This software accounts for the hydrodynamics of the t...

The hydrodynamic investigation of a hull?s performance is a key aspect when designing a new prototype, especially when it comes to a competitive/racing environment. This paper purports to perform a fully nonlinear unsteady Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes...
