Lessons Learned from Full-Scale Seakeeping Trial Acceleration Data for HighSpeed Planing Craft and Implications for Scale Model Testing

Abstract

This paper summarizes lessons learned from analyzing acceleration data recorded during full-scale seakeeping trials of high speed craft. Applications using a consistent maximum wave impact load approach in different areas of interest, including hull structure, shock isolation seat evaluation, and equipment ruggedness criteria are presented. The lessons learned and the maximum load applications suggest that there are implications for scale model testing and computational fluid dynamics.
