Ships can't simply reverse like cars because their rudders become useless when the propeller flow switches direction. We explore the clever techniques captains use, from iterative kicks ahead to ...
The increased performance of the SCHOTTEL RudderPropeller Dynamic SRP-D has once again been confirmed by external sources. At the request of the Dutch Damen Group, the Maritime Research Institute ...
A steadily increasing amount of fluid flow problems in naval architecture is dealt with by solving the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (Rans) or Euler equations. These “field methods”, which ...
