Validation study on a new semi-empirical method for the prediction of added resistance in waves of arbitrary heading in analyzing ship speed trial results
PublicationThis paper describes an open and extensive validation study carried out by the Specialist Committee on Ships in Operation at Sea (SOS) of the International Towing Tank Conference (ITTC) on the newly developed SHOPERA-NTUA-NTU-MARIC (SNNM) wave-added resistance prediction method. The SNNM method aims at a simple, fast and transparent determination of the added resistance in regular waves of arbitrary encounter directions, even when...

Sea spectra revisited
PublicationPokazano, że widma falowania ITTC, wywodzące się z widma Bretschneidera, zależnego od dwóch parametrów, można zredukować do wspólnego widma bezwymiarowego, co oznacza, że są one geometrycznie powinowate. To samo dotyczy widma JONSWAP, które dodatkowo charakteryzuje trzeci paprametr, związany z kształtem piku. Umożliwia to aproksymację tych widm za pomocą rozkładu log-normalnego, co zapewnia realistyczny parametr szerokości widma,...

Comparison of safety levels required by adequate regulations for cargo ships of different types
PublicationDuring the currently ongoing development of methods for assessing the safety of ships, it is imperative that a compromise between the accuracy of the results and the accessibility of obtaining results is reached. This paper shows the calculations of a theoretical hull against damage stability regulations as included in SOLAS 2020, ICLL 66/88 as amended in 2003 and MARPOL 78. The rules included in the currently valid regulations require...

Towards a reliable method for extrapolation of propulsion performance for vessels with twin-crp-pod system
PublicationThe study presents power performance prediction of an Ultra Large Container Ship (ULCS) with hybrid twin-crp-pod propulsion system. Twin crp-pod propulsion system is a combination of three concepts: twin screw, contra-rotating propellers (crp) and conventional shaft propellers with pod propulsors behind. The presented study shows the current extrapolation method for crp propulsion systems and tries to point out its weaknesses....
