    Abstract: When a ship moves in water with acceleration or deceleration, quantities of fluid moving around the hull creating additional hydrodynamic forces acting on the hull. It is imagined as the added mass which increases the total system mass and inertia moment. In order to establish the mathematical model for ship motion, the added components need to be ... Show More
