These are maintained at set values without being influenced by other factors during the simulation process. (Gx, Gy, Gz) refer to the acceleration rate of the body, and (fx, fy, fz) are the viscous accelerations terms, Uw = (uw, vw, ww) are the velocity of the source component, which will generally be non-zero for a mass source at a general moving object, Us = (us, vs, ws) are the velocity vectors of the fluid at the surface of the source relative to the source itself.


2.2 COUPLED SHIP MOTION EQUATIONS This simulation


primarily solves the coupled ship


motion equations (Wei[12]). Two Cartesian coordinate systems were used to describe the body coordinate system and the space coordinate system, which are also called the


body-fixed and earth-fixed systems


(Baha[13]), respectively. In the following, the ship is defined as the body coordinate system. In contrast to numeric channel displacements, the (x, y, z) origin remained fixed in space and the coordinate axis sits parallel to the numeric channel axis when ship (x’, y’, z’) t = 0. Ship movements consist of 6 DOFs. The ship origin is set at the center of mass G. The G point remained fixed relative to the ship, meaning that uv w u v w 0

According to kinematic theory, the general motions of rigid bodies


can be divided into translational and rotational motions. When rotating around the origin, the

Two 3D ship models were constructed in this study. Table 1 presents the geometric data of the two ship models. Ship 1 is a container ship and Ship 2 is a multipurpose ship. The ship models were drafted using the AutoCAD computer aided design (CAD) software. To construct the models, we established the ship type table: Table 1 presents


the


geometric parameters of the two types of ship models for inputting and drafting the ship models in AutoCAD. The origin (x = y = z = 0) was set at the node of the intersection line of the still water level and the midship cross-section and the vertical line of the ship stern. A total of 60 body plans were drafted from the ship stern toward the bow. Subsequently, we trimmed and converted the format of the model ship body: Ship models drafted by using AutoCAD, as shown in Figure 1, were exported to the numerical code-supported STereoLithography (STL) format. Then, the DA Design Expert meshing tool software was used to confirm the completeness of the STL object. Finally, the models were used to solve 3D Navier-Stokes equations.
