Full-Scale Destroyer Motion Measurements
By J . Gerritsma' and W. E. Smith'
The results of full-scale destroyer motion tests in head seas are presented. A comparison is made between motion response obtained from full-scale tests, model experiments, and computer calculations. Agreement is satisfactory.
