The increase of seakeeping performance is of particular importance for car and passenger ferries, service ships in the gas and oil extraction industry and offshore wind power farm industry, as well as for special purpose ships (including military applications). In the water areas of the Baltic Sea, North Sea, and Mediterranean Sea, which are characterised by a short and steep wave, the hull shape has a substantial impact on the operational capacity and propulsion efficiency of the ship, as well as on comfort and safety of navigation. The article analyses selected aspects of seakeeping for four variants of a selected case study vessel, indicating practical limitations of the strip method. The analysed aspects included hull heaving and pitching, added resistance, Motion Thickness Indicator (MSI), and Subjective Magnitude (SM). Experimental tests were also performed in the towing tank. Their comparison with the numerical results has indicated high inaccuracy of the strip method. What is more, the simplified representation of hull shape used in the strip method makes it impossible to analyse the effect of hull shape changes on the predicted seakeeping characteristics. Especially for the case of head wave, neglecting highly non-linear phenomena, such as slamming or head wave breaking, in strip method-based computer simulations will significantly decrease the reliability of the obtained results. When using the strip method, the seakeeping analysis should be complemented with model tests in a towing tank, or by another more complex numerical analysis, such as CFD for instance.

W artykule zaprezentowano wyniki analizy porównawczej charakterystyk amplitudowych właściwości morskich kadłuba jachtu żaglowego na fali regularnej, uzyskanych trzema metodami. Dwie z nich opierały się na podejściu obliczeniowym, trzecia zaś na klasycznym eksperymencie, przeprowadzonym na basenie modelowym. Zrewidowano użyteczność formuł empirycznych, opracowanych na bazie badań kadłubów jachtowych serii Delft. Wykonano symulacje komputerowe przy użyciu modelu numerycznego według teorii paskowej oraz wykonano badania modelowe w celu walidacji obu metod. Dla wybranych warunków falowania porównano zachowania jachtu, które są charakterystyczne dla jego pływania w warunkach sfalowanej powierzchni akwenu wodnego, czyli nurzanie i kiwanie. Zbadano również przyrost oporu kadłuba od falowania.

This paper presents the results of a comparison analysis for seakeeping performance in regular waves obtained by three methods. Two of them were based on a computational approach, the third was based on an experiment carried out in a model pool. The usefulness of empirical formulas developed on the basis of the Delft yacht hulls has been revised. Computer simulations were performed using a numerical model according to strip theory, and model tests were performed to validate both methods. For selected wave characteristics, heave and pitch motions was compared. The added resistance in waves was also examined.

The paper presents the concept of modeling a ship’s operating parameters in order to minimize the fuel consumption in real weather conditions. This is an important innovation because, in ship theory, fuel consumption and speed are usually expressed by average values over longer periods of time, which is a significant limitation. This article presents selected topics of the proposed research such as state-of-the-art, general objectives, scientific and technical expectations, scientific and economic extensions, and environmental impacts. The article also proposes an original method of the research.
