Abstract

Quasi-linear theory (QLT) introduces corrections to for wave amplitudes and lengths in known integrals of linear theory. The corrections are based on implicit employment of 2D problems for nonlinear waves of the highest magnitude. There is both a description of algorithms and comparison with towing test results for diverse ships here. A substantially novel (and environmentally important) aspect of this paper is the application of QLT to the computation of ship wave resistance in shallow waters.
