Seakeeping assessment for a 12000tdw oil tanker
Abstract
The paper presents a numerical investigation into the seakeeping performance of an oil tanker. The numerical analysis was performed by using the 3D potential flow linear method. The hydrodynamic calculation was carried out in order to predict ship motions in regular waves. Ship response in terms of RAO functions (response amplitude operator) was achieved and discussed.
