Abstract
A series of experimental investigations of rigid-body slamming was performed at the Naval Ship Research and Development Center by dropping one flat-bottom steel model and five wedge-shaped steel models with small deadrise angles (up to 15 deg) from various elevated positions above a calm water surface. The test results were used to provide a set of charts for estimating the maximum impact pressure due to rigid-body slamming of wedges.
