Hillege, Derk (author)Delft University of Technology has access to a towing tank where a wave maker can generate waves. When generating waves, non-linear start-up effects occur at the start of a wave train which affect the rest of the signal.<br/> The aim of this thesis is to develop a model which can take these effects into account. A numerical modelling approach is...master thesis 2022

Vertical Motion Simulation Of A DTMB 5415M Ship In Head Sea Using The Variational Multi-scale MethodShen, Zhongwei (author)This master thesis presents the computation of free-surface flow phenomena with emphasis on ship hydromechanics. We perform a simulation of the heave and the pitch motion of the DTMB 5415M ship moving in head sea. To this purpose we employ an existing Arbitrary-Lagrangian-Eulerian residual-based variational multiscale method (ALE-RBVMS) to...master thesis 2019

Meijer, Moos (author)In numerical methods, correct geometry description and mesh refinement are a challenge. By using a more geometrically based Finite Element Analysis (FEA) type method called ‘Isogeometric Analysis’ (IGA), exact geometry description can be attained, even on coarse meshes. Furthermore, mesh refinement is relatively easy, since no communication with...master thesis 2018
