Uzunoglu, E., Ribeiro e Silva, S., Guedes Soares, C., Zamora, R. and Perez Rojas, L. (2013), “Numerical and experimental study of the parametric rolling of a fishing vessel in regular head seas”, International Journal of Maritime Engineering, Vol. 155, pp. A-181 - A-188

The dynamic behaviour of a typical fishing vessel in waves is studied in order to reveal its parametric rolling characteristics. This paper presents a portion of this study by analysing the experimental and numerical results in longitudinal regular waves, which are utilized on a multinational research program. The experimental results are compared against the results of a time-domain non-linear strip theory model of ship's motions in six degrees-of-freedom that has been developed at CENTEC. This assessment is important to validate the current parametric rolling prediction method, and to develop an assessment tool that can be used to evaluate both the susceptibility and severity of occurrence of parametric rolling at the early design stage of these types of bulky vessels.
