In this thesis the wave pattern generated by a moving ship is investigated experimentally using close range photogrammetry. The author has been primarily interested in validating a new approach in the determination of the wave making resistance of a ship by means of the energy contained within the wave pattern. Secondary considerations were the measurement of the total ship resistance and other dynamically related applications; squat and trim, bow and stern wave profiles and their interactive effects. The proposed theoretical approach in this analysis of the wave resistance from the wave pattern is essentially phenomenological. As a ship proceeds through the fluid, it generates a set of waves radiating from the bow and stern due to the pressure differences along the hull. Energy is needed to maintain this system and is supplied at a constant rate by the ship, this being the energy required to overcome wave-making resistance. If the total change in energy within the wave pattern can be evaluated over a time interval associated with a known ship movement, then the energy difference will be a related to the wave making resistance. 2015-12-20T15:27:53Z 2015-12-20T15:27:53Z 1986 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/15822 eng application/pdf Department of Civil Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town |
