Optimizing the Seakeeping Performance of Ship Hull Forms Using Genetic Algorithm

Hull form optimization from a hydrodynamic performance point of view is an important aspect of ship design. This study presents a computational method to estimate the ship seakeeping in regular head wave. In the optimization process the Genetic Algorithm (GA) is linked to the computational method to...
