Abstract
    In recent years, nautical research infrastructure (both towing tank and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) tools) at Flanders Hydraulics (FH) are being used for the prediction of ship resistance in shallow and confined water, while in the past, the focus was mainly on the prediction of ship manoeuvring behaviour in these conditions. To improve the confidence in and gain more experience with the numerical tools in use at FH for ship resistance prediction, FH participated in the model and full scale ship resistance prediction workshop organised by the JoRes consortium. The workshop aimed to compare numerical predictions of the resistance of the Lucy Ashton paddle steamer with experimentally obtained results at different model scales and at full scale. This report documents the work executed by FH during the participation of the workshop, the lessons learned and the knowledge gained.
