Modelling the manoeuvring behaviour of an ULCS in coastal waves Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium
Understanding the ship manoeuvring behaviour in waves is of major interest to avoid ship responses which can lead to hazardous scenarios. Waves may impair the ship's manoeuvrability by inducing hull forces and moments, and by changing the propeller and rudder performance. These are fundamental problems which require further attention.
The present work aims to provide a better insight on the problem of manoeuvring in waves by ...
