Spyros Hirdaris,Wei Bai,Daniele Dessi,Aysen Ergin,X. Gu,Ole Andreas Hermundstad,Rene´ Huijsmans,Kazuhiro Iijima,Ulrik Dam Nielsen,Joško Parunov,Nuno Fonseca,Apostolos Papanikolaou,K. Argyriadis,Atilla Incecik +13 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a review of the recent advances in the assessment of loads for ships and offshore structures with the aim to draw the overall technological landscape available for further understanding, validation and implementation by the academic and industrial communities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Time-Domain Analysis of Large-Amplitude Vertical Ship Motions and Wave Loads
Nuno Fonseca,C. Guedes Soares +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the vertical motions and wave induced loads on ships with forward speed are studied in the time domain, considering non-linear effects associated with large amolitude motions and hull flare shape.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental investigation of the nonlinear effects on the vertical motions and loads of a containership in regular waves
Nuno Fonseca,C. Guedes Soares +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the results of an experimental program carried out in a seakeeping tank with a model of the ITTC S-175 containership in head regular waves.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental Investigation of the Nonlinear Effects on the Statistics of Vertical Motions and Loads of a Containership in Irregular Waves
Nuno Fonseca,C. Guedes Soares +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a nonlinear wave structural load model for irregular seaways, which is based on the frequency domain and peak value Rayleigh distribution for Gaussian processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of numerical and experimental results of nonlinear wave-induced vertical ship motions and loads
TL;DR: In this paper, a nonlinear time-domain procedure is presented which is used to calculate the vertical responses of a container ship advancing in head waves, assuming linear radiation forces represented by time convolution of memory functions, infinite frequency added masses, and radiation restoring coefficients.
