Wang, S. e Guedes Soares, C. (2016), “Experimental and numerical study of the slamming load on the bow of a chemical tanker in irregular waves”, Ocean Engineering, Vol. 111, pp. 369-383

This paper presents calculations of ship motions, slamming occurrence probability and slamming loads on the bow of a ship hull in irregular waves. The results are compared with the experimental data from model tests of a 170m chemical tanker in head seas at zero speed condition. Ship motions are calculated by using a fully nonlinear time domain code based on strip theory. The probabilities of bottom slamming occurrence along the ship hull are studied numerically and statistically, and compared with the experimental data. The experimental data are analysed statistically, to determine the relationships between the measured pressure and the entry velocity and also the wave parameters. Two estimated significant slamming events are simulated by using the Arbitrary-Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) algorithm, based on the calculated relative entry velocities in the numerical procedure.
