Numerical Hydrodynamic Analysis On 11.01 meter Interceptor Experiencing Beam Seas

Abstract

This research discusses the numerical and experimental analysis hydrodynamic of 11.01 meter interceptor in beams seas condition. The analysis concentrate on rolling and heaving motions using numerical formulation and the experimental analysis were carried out at wave basin of University Technology PETRONAS, (UTP). The objective of the paper is to evaluate interceptor responsesin beam seas which were heaving and rolling motions. furthermore, the methods of data analysis using Matrix Laboratory programming (MATLAB) were discussed and the test result from experiment were presented.
