Study on the Resistance of a Large Pure Car Truck Carrier with Bulbous Bow and Transom Stern

The resistance of a large Pure Car Truck Carrier (PCTC) with a bulbous bow and a transom stern is evaluated in the present paper. Several cases at nine different ship speeds in calm water are simulated and results are compared with the experimental measurements. The maximum relative error is 0.93% a...
