... Hydrodynamic forces, ship motions in waves and wave pressure on the hull surface are computed for several ships. The results are compared with experiments and the calculated results bar strip method.

... Euler angles with respect to roll, pitch and yaw are represented as A, §, ~ respectively, and the vector Q Incident waves are generated by movement of flap angle /9 of wave maker attached to tank wall.

... As to, we employ value of to~/377=15.7 to avoid the long period oscillation of hydrodynamic forces appears in case of rapid accelerationt214. In acceleration period until reaching to the steady ship speed, large damping is artificially added to the force term of the motion equation.

... This figure includes hull panels above the still water surface. Fig.4 shows time histories of hydrodynamic forces excluding restoring force component for forced heave with w~/~75=3.86.
From page 382...
... To obtain the hydrodynamic force coefficients on the lateral motions, 3 forced oscillation tests such as pure swaying, pure rolling and pure yawing tests were conducted at towing tank, Nagasaki R & D center, MHIt234. The size of the towing tank is 120m in length, 6.1m in width and 3.65m in water depth.

... Flap angle of the wave maker was selected as OO=l.Odeg so as to coincide with the amplitude of incident waves in the tank test. The calculated amplitude was about 2-3m in fullscale.
From page 386...
... The ship motions gradually grow and at around T = 50 reach to steady state. We see 2 components of oscillation in (~/L: one is long period oscillation due to artificial restoring force term and the other the surge motion oscillating with encounter frequency.

... All the results except the wave patterns were compared with experiments and the calculated results by strip method. As a result, we found that hydrodynamic forces, ship motions and wave pressures are much better predicted than by strip method.
