Abstract

The present work is focused on ship resistance performances assessment for a given capacity containership. Starting from the main dimensions of a parent ship, other ten hull forms have been generated using DELFTship free program. For each case, the hydrodynamic ship resistance has been calculated using an inhouse code. The objective was to modified some geometrical parameters to obtain shapes of the hull that would provide the least resistance at the required transport capacity. The results obtained will be used in a future analysis related to the impact of hull forms improvements and ship resistance reduction on the propulsive performance and CO2 emissions per transport work.
