Abstract

The paper deals with the prediction of coupled sway-roll-yaw motions of a ship with constant forward speed, subject to regular wave force. The governing equations derived in time domain after balancing the hydrodynamic and exciting forces are solved analytically while considering the motion variables, wave frequency and external force are complex quantities. Numerical experiments were carried out for a Panamax container ship under the action of a sinusoidal wave of periodicity 11.2 sec with the variations of speed and wave height. The effect of various parameters on motion responses and system stability is investigated.
