A Simplified Panel Method (sPM) for Hydrodynamics of Air Cushion Assisted Platforms

Air-cushion-assisted platforms (ACAPs) are floating platforms supported by both buoyancy pontoon and air cushion, which have merits of wave bending moment reduction, better stability, and hydrodynamic performance. However, there is barely a concise method that can quickly predict the motion response...
