| Abstract | A benchmarking study is carried out concerning waveinduced ship motions in shallow water, predicted with commercially available codes AQWA, GL Rankine, MOSES, OCTOPUS, PDStrip and WAMIT. Comparison is made with experiments for three cargo ship models tested at Flanders Hydraulics Research. The same IGES models of the ship hulls were used in all codes to ensure consistent representation of the model geometry. The comparisons may be used to assess the suitability of each code for zero-speed applications such as berthed ship motions and under-keel clearance, as well as forward-speed applications such as under-keel clearance in navigation channels. Another, quickly developing, application area that requires analysis of seaway-induced ship motions in shallow water, is analysis of motions, accelerations and loads on cargo transport, installation and service vessels for offshore wind parks. |
