Protection of embankments and bed in inland and maritime waters, and in overflows or weirs

L'etude du probieme de la protection des rives de cours d'eau, taite dans ce rapport, sera limitee au cas d 'un bateau naviguant dans un canal relativement ·etroit. Le risque que Ie fond et les talus du canal soient degrades, est determine par Je caract ere et l'intensite des mouvements qui naissent de la navigation et qui, a leur tour,...

Motion criteria for the efficient (un)loading of container vessels

Designers of maritime container terminals often experience difficulties in defining an acceptable degree of moored ship motions at the terminal to allow efficient (un)loading of container vessels. PIANC has published criteria for the principal movements of certain types of moored ships in harbours in relation to (un)loading efficiency (PIANC,...

Seakeeping Behaviour of High Speed Ships: An Experimental and Numerical Study

In recent years, great progress has been made in both the optimisation of the seakeeping behaviour of fast ships and the development of efficient numerical methods for computation of the seakeeping behaviour of ships in general. The study presented in the thesis aims to integrate both developments. First, the key aspects of the seakeeping...

The Impact of Different Bow Shapes on Large Yacht Comfort

The importance of comfort during transfer and stationing becomes a key performance parameter for large yacht design, on the same level as propulsive issues. Such a matter extends questions in terms of form and service demand to the motion behaviour of the unit in waves. Relevant studies refer to outdated hull forms not specific to modern large...
