Abstract

The nonlinearity of the gravity sea flow past a three-dimensional flat blunt ship with a length-based Froude number of order unity is studied using the method of matched asymptotic expansions. It is shown that the nonlinearity is important in an inner domain near the ship, whereas the flow in the rest of the fluid domain is the solution of a Neumann-Kelvin problem. Two possible inner solutions – a jet and a wave – are obtained and discussed.
