The exciting forces and' moments are calculated for a normal cargo-passengership wich zero velocity in
long-itudinal waves These calculations are based on the Froude Kriloff hypothesis and on the velocity potential for
waves of small amplitude according to Lamb. The influence of second ordcr quantities (such as the Smith effect
or the inclusion of relative velocity) on the exciting forces and moments is considered, as well as the influence of the coupling between heaving and pitching motions The same calculations are made for i mathematical
model, and a comparison is made with published experimental results.
i. 1,:Iroduction
Using the Froude-Kriloff hypothesis it is quite easy to calculate the so called exciting forces and moments which act on a ship in regular sinusoidal
waves.
The hypothesis states that the structure of the
wave is not influenced by the presence of the ship;
the hydrodynamic forces which arise due to the
presence of the ship are neglected.
'Based on these assumptions, Kriloff
[i, 2]
developed a method for calculating the forces
and moments created by waves.
Weinblum and St. Denis [3, 4] also begin with the Froude-Kriloff hypothesis after which an
estimation is made of the influence of damping and added mass on the exciting forces and moments. It is clear that the Froude-Kriloff hypothesis contains a rather far-reaching assumption.
For instance, the presence of the ship will
in-fluence the orbital velocities of the water particles in the wave, and this in turn will change the
pressure distribution.
'Waves are also generated as a result of the speed
of the ship and its motions in the sea, and these
are superimposed on the existing waves, resulting
in a varying amount of distortion.
It is clearly necessary to see to what extent the Froude-Kriloff' hypothesis leads to satisfactory results. 'For example, oñecan determine the heaving and pitching motions of a modél in waves and these can be compared with the theorçtical valües.
Igonet [5] carried out such an investigation; he
found fairly good agreement between theory and
experiment for 2/L> 0,7 where 2 = wavelength
and L = ship length.
This result is remarkable, considering that Igonet
did not include (among other things) the Smith
effect.
Weinbium mentioned that the Smith effect might be important [6] so that the agreement which Igonet found may not be conclusive.
In order to determine the corréctncss of methods' of calculation with' such a comparison it is
neces-sary to know the damping and added mass very accurately. Both these 'quantities influence the
magnitude of the ship motions. In general these
values are obtained from pitching and heaving tests at the natural frequency of the model. Duc to the' high value of damping the values .òbtaincd 'in this
way are quite inaccurate since the model is practically at rest after two, oscillations.,
Furthermore Haskind and Rieman [7] ' have shown that the damping and added mass are a, function of 'the frequency of the motion.
This' result was obtained by applying an exciting
force of varying frequency to a model in still
water.
The damping of the heaving 'and pitching motion in waves depends on the relative velocity of the water with respect to the 'ship and the added mass is dependant on the rclàtive acceleration, as shown by Weinblum and St. Denis [3, 4]. It now appears that the inclusion of relative motions also affects the' exciting, forces and moments.
One can determine these "corrected" forces and moments experimentally [7, 8].
For example the exciting moments can be found by the method shown in Fig. I.
'The shipmodel' is pivoted at t'he centre of gravity and is held by a 'rod at Q where the forces caused by the waves can be measured. From this the moments can be found., This is actually not a direct check on the moments calculaed" according to the Froude-Kriloff hypothesis since, as has, been
mentioned, the damping and added mass also in-fluence the exciting moments.
Korvin-Kroukovsky and Lewis [8, 9] show the 3

importance of the coupling between the heaving
and pitching motions: pure heaving causes pitching and vice-versa. This coupling is caused by the fact that the centre of gravity is not directly above the centre of flotation and also due to theasymmetrical distribution of the damping forces along the length of the ship.
The former has already been considered by Kriloff [i]. It is important to ascertain whether
the large differences between the coupled and
un-coupled motions given in [8] hold fOr a large
range of 2/L.
In this article a simple case is considered; namely the pitching and heaving of a ship with zero velo-city in longitudinal waves.
The relative magnitudes of the various second-order effects, mentioned in various publications,
are determined in order to make an appraisal of
their importance.
In particular the following effects are. treated: the Smith effect,
the iiifluence. of relative motion,
the coupling between pitching and heaving. The calculations arc made for a normal cargo-passenger ship in waves of various lengths
The exciting forces and moments are calculated alOng the lines suggested by Kriloff although the
velocity potential for sinusoidal waves of small
amplitude according to Lamb [IO] is actually used. The damping and added mass arc calculated in
a manner similar to that given in [4].
Here a two-dimensional strip theory is used The damping and added mass arc calculated for a given cross section. These values arc then integrated over the lèngth of the ship.
This method of calculation may be open to some criticism, particularly with regard to pitching [8].
However, the purpose of the calculation is to
determine, the order of magnitude of the various second-order effects. In this case the above
mentioned methods of calculation are accurate enough.
The experimental results are not given in this
article since the measuring technique was not suf-ficiently accurate.
In particular this was the case with the experi-ments to determine the damping. and added mass where the model was made to pitch and heave, in still water by means of rotating eccentric weights.
Reflections of the waves from the walls of the
tank caused by the ship motions, seemed to have a large effect.
The author knows of only one case where the
experimental values, of damping, added mass and motions for one model are published together [7]. These results are given for the heaving motion. of a mathematical shipform. The calculation of the exciting forces and of the heaving motions for this model has been carried out here in the same manner as for the cargo-passenger ship.
A comparison between experiment and theory is therefore possible in this case.
2. Calculation of heaving anti pitching
Consider a ship with zero velocity in longitudinal wavcs A system of orthogonal coordinates OXYZ is fixed in space; the origin O lies in the undisturbed
surface of the water, OZ is vertically upwards whereas OX is horizontal and perpendicular to the wave crests.
A second system of orthogonal coordinates ox'z is related to the ship; the origin o lies in the centre
of gravity G of the ship.
In still water the stern of the ship is directed in' the positive direction of OX and the two coordinate
systems coincide. From this we assume that the
centre of gravity G is situated at a distance h above the keel, where h is the draught of the vessel.
The error due to this assumption is very small as can be seen later.
The velocity potential of plane irrotational waves of small surface amplitude r and of length 2, moving in the negative direction of OX is given by Lamb [IO].

Since Lewis' work considers high circular

clearly not applicable to ship motions, and must be consLdered as a fairly rough approximation in this

There are several methods for solving the above mentioned simultaneous differential equations.
The method of. successive approximations as used
in [1] is very useful for our purpose:
Simultaneously it gives the solution for the
un-coupled and thç un-coupled motion. A comparison
between the two solutions is then possible.
So that end we first solvethe followingequations:
a + b +c = rFcos (ut
e)A + B + C' = rM cos (wi -
ô)The resulting values for and p (and their derivatives) are then substituted in the coupling
terms f the simultaneous differential equations. Then, each of these equatiOns can be solved easily, after which a new iteration is possible.
Two iterations are quite sufficient as the coup-ling terms can be considered as second order effects. As a check the method given in [81 is also used. The solutions can be presented in the following form:
= 0/r cos (ut - y)
and
v'la = v'0/a cos wt - fi)
in which the heaving motion is related to the wave amplitude r, and the pitching angle is divided by
the maximum wave slope u;
fi and ;' are the phase differences with the wave
motion.
3. Numerical results
a. Exciting forces and moments
For a normal cargo-passengership the exciting forces and moments and the resulting motiòns are calculated along the above mentioned lines..

(E,, is introduced 'by the damping and G,, by the added mass when relative motions arc considered.) Comparison of r F" and r F" gives an idea of the importance ofE,.
In fig. 3 the above mentioned maximum heaving forces arc given in a dimensionless form:
namely on a base of L/A (thusF isdivided by the area of the waterplane).
The same procedure is followed with the calcul-ation of 'the pitching moments.

This applies to. the correction for the relative

The damping coefficients dònot agree accurately; but there may be errors in the experimental values. too: it is extremely difficult to determine damping coefficients experimentally.
Also the experimental and the calculated phase-differences show a certain disagreement; however, the absolute errors are about 10 dègrces, which is not very much (see Figs 7 and '8).
Fig. 9 gives the exciting force coefficients. It ¡s shown here that the inclusion of the Smith effect

The calculations show that the second order
effects, such as the Smith effect and the inclusion of the relative motion when determining the inertia forces, arc fairly important.
However, the influence of the damping on the exciting forces and: moments 'is- small and can be neglected. Therefore it is perhaps possible to use experimental values, of damping coefficiénts for the. whole model in still water (coefficients. b and B sec formula 12).
Ekccpt for the heaving motion when LIA ) . 9
the influence of the' coupling between heaving and
pitching motions is very small, but perhaps this
statement is valid only for a ship with zero velocity. Future experimental research will be necessary to verify the calculated exciting forces and moments. The determination of the added mass should be based on experiments with prismatic bodies in the low circular frequency range.
Also the influence of three-dimensional flow
(coefficients Ci and G2) must be determined. The comparison between calculation and experi-ment for the mathematical model is not quite satis-factory. For the greater part this will be due to the rough assumptions being made.
Extensive modeltests in waves are necessary to check the calculation of ship motions and experi-mental accuracy is essential for this purpose.

Th. exciting torces and moments
are calculated for a normal
cargo-passengershjp with zero velocity in longitudinal
waves.
These calculations are based on the Froude-Kriloff hypothesis
and. on
the velocity potentialfor waves of small amplitude
according tot Lamb.The influence of second order
çiantities (such as the
Smith effect or
the inclusion of relative velocity)
on the
exciting fox,ces and moments ta considered,
as well as the
influence of the coupling between heaving
and. pitching motions.
The same calculations are made for a mathematical model,
and a comparison is made with
published
experimental results.I. IlTROD1TION
tYsing the Froude-Kriloff hypothesis
it is quite simple to
calculate the so called exciting torces
and moments which
act on a ship in regular
sinusoidal waves.
The hypothesis states that the stiicture of the wave ta not
influenced by the presence of the ship;
the hydrodynamic forces which arise due to the presence of
the ship are neglected.
Based on these assumptions,
Kriloff (1,2] developed a method
to calculate the forces and.
momenta created by waves.
Weinblum and St. Denia (3,
4] also begin with theFroude-.
Kriloff hypothesis after which an estimation is
made of theinfluence of damping and added
masa on the exciting forces
It is clear tbat the Froude.Kx'jloff
bypothesis contains
a rather far-.reaching aesumption.
For instance, the
presence of the ship will influence
the orbital velocities of the
water particles in the
wave, and thia in tum will change the
pressure distri-.
butio.
Waves are also generated
as a result of the speed of the
Ship and ita mottons in the sea, and these are aupei'.
imposed on the excisting
waves, reilting in a vazying
aaount of distortion.
It is clearly necessary to
see to ithat extent the
Proude-Krileff hypothesis leads to
oôci resulta, Por
example,
on4 can determine the heaving and
pitching mottons of
a model in waves and. theas can be compared
with the

invas-tigation; he found fairly good.

an&exper1ment for À/L ) 0,7
where A = wavelength and.
L,
= ship length,
This result is remarkable,
considering that Igoet did
not include (among other things)
the Smith effect.
Weinbium ment1oned that the Smith
effect might be important
so that the agreement which Igonet
found may not be
con-clusive,
In order to determine the correctness of calculating
methods With such a comparison it is necessary to loiow
the damping and. added
masa very accuratly, Both these
quantities influence the magnitude of
the ship motions,
In general these values
are obtained from pitching and
heaving teats at the natural
frequency of the model.
De to the high value
of damping the values obtained.
in this
w&y are quite lnaocurate since the model la
practically still after two
osculations,
Furthermore Raskid and. Rteman
7) have shown that the
damping and added
mass are a function of the feueney
of the motion,
This result
was obtained by applying an exciting force
of varying frequetcy to
model in still water.
-3-The damping of the heaving and. pitching motion in waves
depends on the relative velocity of the water with respect
to the ship and the added mass is
dependant on the
rela-tive acceleration, as shown by Weinbium
and St. Denia t3,4]
It now appears that the inclusion
of relative motions alsoaffects the exciting forces and
moments0
One can determina these "corrected"
forces and moments
ex-perimentally
7, 8].
For example the exciting momenta can be found with
the
method shown in fig, i
The shtpmodai is pivoted at the
centre
of gravity and. isheld. by a rod at where the forces caused by the waves
can be measured. Prom this
the momenta can be found.
Thia is actually not
a direct check
on the momentacalcu-lated. acoording to the Froude-Irtioff
hypothesis since,
as has been ment iònsd,
the dampingand added mass also
influence the exciting momenta.Korvin-Kroukoyalçy and Lewis £8,
9
show the importance of
the coupling between the heaving
andpitching motions:
pure heaving causee pitching and vice-versa0
This coupling
is caused by the fact that the centre of gravity io not
directly above the centre
of flotation and also due tothe asymmetrical distribution of the
damping forcesalong
the
length of the ship.
The former has already been considered by Kriloff (1).
It is important to ascertain whether the large
differences
between the coupled and. uncoupled
motions given in (8)
hold for a large range of A/L
In tute
article a simple case is
considered; namely the
pitching and heaving of a ship with zero velocity in longi-tudinal waves.
The relative
*gnitudee of the
various second-order effects,mentioned in literaturé,
are determined tú order to make
an appraisal, of their importance.
In particular the following effects are treated: the Smith effect,
the influence of the relative motion,
-k-The calculations are made for a normal
cargo-passenger shipin waves of various
lengths.The exciting forces and moments are
calculated along thelines of Krilof
f although the velocity potential of
sinusoidal waves of
small amplitude according to Lamb
lO)
is actually used.
The damping and added mass are calculated in a
manner
similar to
that given in t4].Here a two-dimensional strip theory is used. The damping
and added mass are calculated for a given cross section.
These values
are then integrated:over the length of the
ship.
This method of calculation may be
opento some criticism,
particularly as regards
to pitchingt83.
However, the purpose of the
calculation is to determinethe
order ofmagnitude of
the varioussecond-order effects.
In this case the above
mentioned
calculationmethods are
accurate enough.
The experimental
results are
not given in this articlesince the
measuring techiiique was
not sufficiently accurate.In particular this was the case with the
experiments to
determine the damping
andadded mase where
the model wasmade to pitch
andheave in still water by means
ofrotating excentric weights.
Reflections of the waves
fromthe walls of the tank caused by the ship
motions, seemed tohave a large effect.
The author knows
of only one case wherethe experimental.
values of damping, added mass and
motionsfor one model
are published together t?].
These results are given forthe heaving motion of a niatheinatical shipform. The
cal-culation of the
exciting forcesand of the heaving motions
for this model has been
carried out
here in the samemanner as for the cargo-passenger ship.
A comparison between experiment and
theory is therefore-5-.
II. CALCULATION OP HEAVING AND PITCHING.
Consider a ship with zero velocity in longitudinal
waves. A system of orthogona]. coordinates OXYZ is fixed
in space; the origin O lies in the undisturbed surface of the water, OZ is vertically upwards whereas OX is
horizontal and perpendicular to the wave cresta.
A second system of 0rtbogonal coordinates oxyz is relateL to the ship; the origin o lies in the centre of gravity
G of the ship.
In still water the stern of the ship le directed in
positive direction of OX and the two coordinate systems
coincide. From this we assume that the centre of gravity G is situated at a distance h above the keel, where h Is
the draught of the vessel.
The error due to this assumption Is very small as can be
seen later.
The velocity potential of plane irrotational waves of
small surface amplitude r and. of length A ,moving in the
negative direction of OX is given by Lamb [10].

acting
on the ship:displacement forces, damping forces,

Solution of the differential eouations.
There are several
methods to solve the abovesimultaneous differential equations.
The method of the euccesive approximations
1:1] i very useful for our
purpose:
Simultaneously it gives the solution for the

comparison between
solutions is then possible.
Po that end we first solve the following equations:

The resulting values for end W (end
their
direvatives)are
then substituted in the coupling terms of thesimultaneous differential equations.
Then, each of these equations can be solved easely, after
which a new iteration is possible.
Two iterations are quite sufficient as the coupling
terms can be considered as Second order effects. As a
check the method given in t8] Is also used.

-The exciting forces,
the damping and. the added mass are
calculated for this model with the same method as used
for the cargopassenger ships.
In this case the differential equation
will be:

and the solution
COB (Wt
-The coefficients a and b are known from the
experiments, The value of F Ic determined as follows:
As we have seen above, the damping and added
mass for
each Cross section must be known to calculate the
exciting force,
The experimental results give these values for the
whole model only.
Therefore t Is assumed that the distribution of
these
quantities over the length of the model is equal to that
of the calculated values.
This applies to the correction for the relative motion
which is a second-order effect: an error in the
assumptions made, will not affect the result
greatly.
The fIgures 6 - 10 give the resulte of the
calculations;
the experimental results are taken from
7j.
Figure 6 shows that only at high circular frequency
the calculated added
mass approaches
the experimental
values; this
can be expected as stated above.The damping ccÍicients do not agree accurately; but
there may be errors in the experimental
values too:
It is extremely difficult to determine damping coefficients experimentally.
Also the experimental and the
calculated
phase-differences show a certain disagreement; however, the
absolute
errors are about 10 degrees,hjch Is not verymuch (see figures 7 and 8).
Figure 9 gives the exciting force coefficients.
It is
shown here that the inclusion of Smith effect and the

-between experiment and calculation. Still there is some
discrepancy between the two curves, which is also the
case in fig.1O where the heaving motion amplitudes are
plotted on a base of
L/A,
IV. CONCLUSIONS.
The calculations show that the second order effects,
such as the Smith effect and the 1fle1ujon of the
relative
motion when determining the inertia fcrces,
are fairly important.
However, the influence of the damping on the exciting
forces and moments is small and can be neglected.
Therefore it is perhaps possible to use experimentei.
values of damping coefficients of the whole model in
still water (coefficients b and B see formula 12).
Except for the heaving motion when
L/A> .9
the influenceof the coupling between heaving and pitching motions is
very small, but perhaps
this statement is valid only for
a ship with
zero
velocity.Future experimental research will be
necessary to verify
the Calculated exciting forces and moments.
The determination of the added mass should be based
on experiments with prismatic bodiee in the low circular
frequency range.
Also the influence of three-dimensional
flow(coejcjents
C1 end C2) must be determined.
The comparison between calculation and experiment for the mathematical model is not
quite satisfactory. For the
greater part this will be due to the rough assumptions
being made.
Extensive modelteets in waves are necessary to check the
calculation of ship motions and experimental accuracy is
essential for this purpose.
