Overview

With the continuous increase in ship size combined with the generally slower increase in the sizes of waterways, the need for the prediction of ship maneuvering in shallow waterways continues to attract attention from the international scientific community. Ship behavior in shallow water is relevant in seabed effects that result in changing the hydrodynamic forces acting on a ship. In this study, the maneuvering characteristics of a container ship with four degrees of freedom in shallow water are analyzed. The Reynolds-Averaged Navier Stokes approach in Ansys Fluent code is used to produce the maneuvering coefficients through the simulations of forward running, static drift, static heel, circular motion, the combined motions, and the pure roll motion of the KRISO container ship. The maneuvering characteristics of the ship are estimated for evaluating the ship behav-iors in shallow-water conditions.
