Proceedings of the General Meeting (18th) of the American Towing Tank Conference, 23-25 August 1977, Annapolis, Maryland. Volume III. Maneuvering Session and Systems and Techniques Session,

Abstract

During the past few years, analytical and experimental studies on shallow water maneuvering characteristics have been continued with a major emphasis placed on dynamic behavior of ships (in particular VLCCs) in waterways and harbors. This report will review recent model test data in deep and shallow water, which have been obtained at Davidson Laboratory, and will also present the application of the model test data to ship motion simulations.
