ANALYSIS OF THE RESISTANCE INCREASE IN WAVES OF A FAST CARGO SHIP

A new method to calculate the added resistance of a ship in longitudinal waves is discussed. For the particular case of a fast cargo-ship the calculated values are compared with experimental results, and a satisfactory agreement is shown. In addition the experiments with the considered shipform confirm that added resistance varies as the squared wave height for constant speed and wave length.
