RESISTANCE AND SEAKEEPING DATABASE FOR USCG 157 FT WLM; FINAL REPT
EHP, sinkage and trim in calm water as functions of speed for the USCG 157 FT WLM buoy tender are derived from the results of 1/32 scale model tests in deep and shallow water. Long crested, head seas testing of the same model at three discrete speeds resulted in normalized response curves for pitch, heave, relative motion at Station 1 (of 10) and added resistance due to encountered waves.
