Abstract: This paper presents a frequency domain method for predicting the relative wave elevation due to the hydrodynamic interaction between two floating structures in the beam waves. The strip method ...

Abstract: The paper presents a strip theory and its correlation with experiment and analysis on the relative motions of two ships. The ships are in close proximity and in parallel position in oblique ...

Abstract: An analytical procedure for evaluating the lateral drifting forces and moments between two ships in oblique waves by near-field method is presented in this paper. The velocity potential, including ...
