Abstract

Computational fluid dynamics solvers were applied to the field of high-speed boat design. The lattice Boltzmann method was used to assess the water-phase of the flow around a number of high-speed hullform geometries, and was validated against empirical industry and literature data. A heave dynamics cap...
