New concept research on mono-hull compounded ship form with high seakeeping performance

Abstract

The seakeeping performance of a certain ship equipped with semi-submerged bow (SSB) and bow-fins is discussed. The numerical calculations are carried out on a 600t deep-V compound archetypal ship. The results show that the compounded ship form has excellent seakeeping performance and thus it establishes the theoretical foundations for the development of monohull compounded ship form with high seakeeping performance.
