Representation of Wigley Hulls by HLLSRF

Abstract

Wigley hulls have been widely used as test cases for hydrodynamic computer programs because they can be modelled exactly in the computer, and because there are extensive experimental data describing the flow around them. In this communication, it is shown how Wigley hulls can be described using the HLLSRF hull representation system. A user's guide for a Fortran 77 program which generates a HLLSRF data file for a Wigley hull is included. Keywords: Canada, French language, Spline functions, B Splines.
