Abstract

The purpose of this study is to propose the simulation method of a small ship's motions in wash wave. Authors have proposed a reproduction method of wash wave by multi-segmented wave generators which are controlled by using computed results of CFD. Moreover, three dimensional numerical wave tank (3D-NWT) which represents a model basin and multi-segmented wave generators has been developed to simulated wash wave.

In this study, ship motions in wash wave were simulated in 3D-NWT and the simulated results were compared with the experimental results which were carried out by using the reproduction method of wash wave by wave generators.
