Study of the Roll and Pitch Transients in Calm Water Using the Simulated Performance of the XR-3 Surface Effect Ship Loads and Motions Computer Program.

Abstract

Comparison studies of simulated performance of two XR-3 Loads and Motions computer programs are made. Computed pitch and roll behaviour in calm water are investigated. Changes in various subroutine programs are made and justified. Finally an optimal model is selected for future studies and validations.
