Ship motions near harbor caused by wave actions
Abstract
Around the harbour, waves affected by seabed topography as well as by breakwater could cause additional problems for ships sailing in this area. Motion of ships due to these waves was studied in this paper through a boundary element method. As verification of this method, wave-induced ship motions in the open seas were also calculated and compared with those of Ijima. The results are in satisfactory agreement.
