Abstract

A time domain method is employed to analyze interactions between waves and floating bodies. The nonlinear free surface conditions and body boundary conditions are satisfied based on the perturbation method up to 3rd order. The objective is to theoretically study springing of ships. Springing is a weakly nonlinear problem. The relevant wave lengths are short relative to the ship length. Thus, for the ship springing problem, from computational efficiency point of view, a perturbation method has its advantage compared with a fully nonlinear method.
