Abstract

The modern maritime industry is moving toward the development of technology that will allow for full or partial autonomy of ship operation. This innovation places high demands on ship performance prediction techniques at the design stage. The research work presented in the article is related to the design stage of the ship and concerns methods for prognosis and evaluation of the specific operational condition of the ship, namely the dynamic positioning (DP). The paper is an introduction to a study that seeks to assess the impact of using advanced simulation models on the accuracy of DP capability prediction. To this end, the Potential Theory and methods of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) are applied to determine the mathematical model of the ship. The parameters obtained in the course of simulation studies have been compared to those obtained experimentally. The study showed that the proposed method is sufficiently accurate for the purposes of determining the added mass and damping coefficients of the ship. Consequently, it is considered that design offices could improve the accuracy of the DP prediction by using mathematical modeling and numerical methods to estimate selected ship parameters.
