Hydrodynamic interaction of vessels on shallow water

Applied hydromechanics, Vol. 9 (81) ¹ 4, (2007) p.17-29
The hydrodynamic forces and moments acting on the system of two ships in shallow water are calculated on the basis of numeral method of boundary elements. Ships are designed by triaxial ellipsoids. Influencing of botton is taken into account by means the special Grins function. Different cases of motion of bodies are considered: passing of ship past moored one, passing on equal speeds and meeting divergence of ships. A comparison of numerical computations with the known data of experiments is made.
