Abstract

In this work, we focus on predicting ship motions using the strip theory optimization method. This method served to determine the hydrodynamic coefficients for pitch motion.  Several experimental tests have been carried on a tanker ship model towing tank, with a chosen encounter frequency for head waves. Comparative validations of obtained results with experimental data are given, showing an acceptable correlation.
