Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue is dedicated to "Computational Fluid Dynamics and Acoustic Design Methods for Ship", aiming to consolidate and showcase the latest advancements and innovative applications of computational fluid dynamics and structural acoustics technology for addressing problems within the field of marine science and engineering. The topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to, the optimization design of ships and propellers, ship–propeller interactions, combined wind and wave load-induced complex effects on ships, cavitation in marine propellers, coastal erosion due to wave action and harbor resonance induced by waves, numerical methods for ship structural vibration and sound radiation, the acoustic optimization design of ship structures, and innovative methods for vibration and noise reduction in ships. We invite you to submit original research papers, review articles, or case studies related to the above topics. We particularly encourage interdisciplinary research and innovative studies that combine traditional methods with modern numerical simulation techniques. We anticipate that your submissions will advance our collective knowledge of marine science and engineering and provide solutions to practical engineering problems.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Journal of Marine Science and Engineering is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Title: Wave Drift Force and Moment in Deep and Shallow Water
Authors: Heinrich Söding
Affiliation: Hamburg University of Technology
Abstract: To attain a low Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI), large ships possibly lack the necessary propulsion power to avoid stranding in case of strong adverse wind and wave conditions. To estimate this danger, here the longitudinal and transverse drift force and the yaw drift moment caused by regular waves of arbitrary frequency and direction are computed using a 3-dimensional Rankine panel method. In many cases, drift forces are larger in shallow than in deep water. Therefore, the theory for computing drift force and moment is extended to shallow water. As published results for shallow water are lacking, the method is verified only for deep water by comparisons with results of model experiments and CFD computations for three ships. For one of them, the dependence of non-dimensional coefficients of longitudinal and transverse drift force and of the drift yaw moment on wave frequency, wave angle, water depth and ship speed is shown. The source files of the programs used for these computations may be obtained from the author if an adequate fee is donated to the Medecins Sans Frontieres or to the author.
