Abstract

The paper describes an investigation on the relevance of parametric resonance for two typical fishing vessels in head seas. The investigation is aimed at assessing the influence of the incorporation of a transom stern to the design. Results for different Froude numbers are discussed. The first region of resonance is investigated. Distinct metacentric heights and wave amplitudes are
considered. Quite intense resonances are found to occur. These are associated with specific values of metacentric height, ship speed and stern shape. In order to analyse the experimental/numerical results, analytic consideration is given to distinct parameters affecting the dynamic process of roll amplification. The influence of heave, pitch, wave passage effect, speed and roll restoring characteristics are discussed.
