Procedures for Computing the Freeboard Requirements of Displacement Monohulls.

Abstract

Methodologies for empirical assessment of the nonkinematic components of ship-to-wave relative motion, change of level, and bow wave profile are presented. Computation of wave contours from observed wave data is described. Linear superposition computations in the wavelength/ship length domain are outlined. (Author)
