The present study aims to review the wave pattern resistance analysis method suggested by the International Towing Tank Conference. From the experimental database of a container carrier ship model, the wave pattern measurement and resistance test results are utilized. The wave pattern resistance at the design Froude number is obtained to be compared with the wave making resistance of experiments. Wave pattern resistance is lower than wave making resistance by 1978 ITTC and uniform regardless of transverse location of wave cut. The method is also applied to the wave height field by Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analyses with Froude number variation. Although numerical damping suppressed waves in downstream, waves around the hull and wave pattern resistance are properly predicted.

This paper uses optimization techniques to obtain bow hull form of a 66,000 DWT bulk carrier in calm water and in waves. Parametric modification functions of SAC and section shape of DLWL are used for hull form variation. Multi-objective functions are applied to minimize the wave-making resistance in calm water and added resistance in regular head wave of ${\lambda}/L=0.5$. WAVIS version 1.3 is used to obtain wave-making resistance. The modified Fujii and Takahashi's formula is applied to obtain the added resistance in short wave. The PSO algorithm is employed for the optimization technique. The resistance and motion characteristics in calm water and regular and irregular head waves of the three hull forms are compared. It has been shown that the optimal brings 13.2% reduction in the wave-making resistance and 13.8% reduction in the added resistance at ${\lambda}/L=0.5$; and the mean added resistance reduces by 9.5% at sea state 5.

The effect of water depth on the wave making resistance performance is great where Froude number based on the water depth is close to one. The increase of wave making resistance due to the shallow water effect is evaluated by a numerical analysis in the present study. Three-dimensional Navier-Stokes and continuity equations are employed for the present study and the equations are discretized by finite difference method. The interface between water and air is determined by the level set method. In order to validate the numerical method, the change of resistance performance for Wigley hull according to the water depth is evaluated and the computed resistance coefficient is compared with measured one. The present numerical method is applied for the simulation of wave phenomena around a Ro-Pax hull form and the computed results are discussed in the resistance performance point of view.

This paper was intended to compare the relationship between sectional form of ships and wave making resistance by calculating the resistance value practically rather than theoretically. As the sectional form of ships, four types of quadratic ship forms was introduced and he wave making resistance was calculated by the Slender Ship Theory. The main result obtained in this paper is the following. The relationship between the displacement distribution of draught direction in the given sectional form of ships and the resistance value was shown. It was supposed that the resistance value will decrease with the increase of the displacement distribution of draught direction and it was proved by the numerical value.

This paper deals with Guilloton's method for wave-making resistance calculation. Ship is considered as slender in this paper. Guillotin's method requires a large and fast computer, while mini-computer is good enough for the present method. Present method is practical as well, as prismatic curves along with other principal particulars are requirements for the calculation. Unless the ship is thin, Z-transformation is difficult to carry out, but this can be done smoothly in the present method by considering the flow around the bottom of the ship. As an example of this method, corresponding real hulls of Maruo's least wave-making resistance ship forms are calculated.

In order to obtain the wave-making resistance of a ship, so-called the Neumann-Kelvin problem is solved numerically. For computing the Havelock source, which is the Green's function of the problem, we adopted the methods given by Newman(1987) for the term representing the local disturbance, and Baar and Price(1988) for the wave disturbance, respectively. In the numerical code we developed, the source strength is assumed as bilinear on each panel and continuous throughout the hull surface. The wave-making resistance is calculated using the algorithm of de Sendagorta and erases(1988), which makes use of the wave amplitude far downstream. The Wigley hull was chosen for the sample calculation, and our results showed a good agreement with other existing experimental and numerical results.

The materials to develop a computer-based method for the wave resistance of a ship within the frame of Guilloton's wedge concept are presented in this paper. A systematic reliable procedure to retrieve the linearized hull corresponding to a given real hull form(the so-called inverse transformation) has been devised. The algorithm based on the present materials produces evidently accurate values of the H-functions, and the wave profiles and the wave resistance coefficients in good agreement with the experimental measurements.

In 1925 Havelock compared theoretical wave resistance with experimental one varying draft, in which the two ship's forms were different from each other. So, in this paper theoretical wave resistance was compared with the experimental one on the ship of the same form. And, though Havelock calculated theoretical wave resistance by mathematical artifice, in this paper it was calculated by computer using the method of numerical integration. In Havelock's paper, the increment of wave resistance decreased when the draft increased. but in this paper the conclusion is changed: the increment of wave resistance increases when the draft increases. The reason is supposed by the effect of the displacement of the ship.

Wave resistance of a parabolic thin ship, with its boundary layer and wake taken into account, was calculated up to second order. In addition to the double-model source distribution on the centerplane, image sources of the wave potential were calculated to keep the body introduced boundary condition undisturbed. Boundary layer and wake effects on the wave-making resistance were included by generating an irrotational flow which matches that exterior to the boundary layer and wake. For this purpose, the boundary layer and wake were calculated. The wave resistance refined with second-order corrections are found to be very important for wave resistance calculations even at moderate Froude numbers($Fr=0.2{\sim}0.3$). Wave-potential corrections are dominate around the bow. On the other hand, Viscosity plays and important role at the stern with its boundary layer and wake development.

Calm water wave resistance plays a very important role in ship hull design. Numerical methods are meaningful for this reason. In this study, two prevailing methods, the Neumann-Kelvin and the Rankine source method, were implemented and compared. The Neumann-Kelvin method assumes linearized free surface boundary condition and only needs to mesh the hull surface. The Rankine source method considers nonlinear free surface boundary condition and meshes both the ship hull surface and free surface. Both methods were implemented and the wave resistance of a Wigley III and three Series 60(Cb=0.6, 0.7, 0.8) hulls were analyzed. The results were compared with experimental results and the merits of both numerical techniques were quantified. Based on the results, it is concluded that the Rankine source method is more accurate in the calculation of the wave-making resistance. Using the Neumann-Kelvin method, it is found to be easier to model the hull and can be used for slender ships to solve problems like wave current coupling calculation.
