Strathprints makes available scholarly Open Access content by researchers in the Department of Architecture based within the Faculty of Engineering.

Research activity at Architecture explores a wide variety of significant research areas within architecture and the built environment. Among these is the better exploitation of innovative construction technologies and ICT to optimise 'total building performance', as well as reduce waste and environmental impact. Sustainable architectural and urban design is an important component of this. To this end, the Cluster for Research in Design and Sustainability (CRiDS) focuses its research energies towards developing resilient responses to the social, environmental and economic challenges associated with urbanism and cities, in both the developed and developing world.

Abstract

The hydrodynamic interaction between two ships with side-by-side arrangement is analyzed by using 3-D Rankine source panel code. The source points are distributed over the mean wetted body surface as well as on the free surface. The shallow water effect has been taken into consideration. Moreover, the influence of the distance between the vessels is also investigated. To verify the present code, two Wigley III hulls are simulated both in beam sea and head sea conditions. The wave pattern and the motion RAOs of 6-DOF are calculated by present code and compared with WADAM program which is based on Green function method. From the comparisons, good agreement is found between present calculation and Wadam results. It is found that the hydrodynamic interactions are generally important especially in beam sea case. The resonant frequency is greatly influenced by the distance between the vessels.
