CONSIDERATIONS ON WAVE DRIFT DAMPING OF A MOORED TANKER FOR ZERO AND NON-ZERO DRIFT ANGLES

R.H.M. Huijsmans, Johan E. W. Wichers

Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

The authors are concerned with developing and applying the hydrodynamic theory needed to predict the wave drift damping phenomenon introduced by Wichers in 1979 and 1982. First order functions for the heave and pitch of a 200 kDWT tanker moored in deep water waves with current are calculated and compared with model test results.
