The Role of Nonlinear Hydrodynamics in Ship Leaning & Capsizing

AI Thread Summary
Nonlinear hydrodynamic forces are often considered negligible during the slow leaning of a ship, particularly in quasi-static stability analyses. This perspective holds unless the focus is on the rapidity of capsizing events. For vessels heeling slowly, these forces can typically be ignored, simplifying stability assessments. However, their significance may increase when evaluating a capsized ship's righting behavior. Ultimately, the role of nonlinear hydrodynamics is context-dependent, particularly in dynamic scenarios.

Can the nonlinear hydrodynamic be ignored in the process of a ship leaning slowly， and the ship capsized ultimately.

Thanks！

Nonlinear hydrodynamic what?

Ship stability at large angles of heel is usually treated as a quasi-static process, unless one is trying to determine how quickly capsizing takes place.

If, as you say, the vessel is heeling slowly, then these forces can be neglected.

Thank you for answering my question.
So， The nonlinear hydrodynamic forces can be neglected when a capsized ship is righting ？
 

Thread 'Questions about the Tesla turbine'

Hi all, i have some questions about the tesla turbine: is a tesla turbine more efficient than a steam engine or a stirling engine ? about the discs of the tesla turbine warping because of the high speed rotations; does running the engine on a lower speed solve that or will the discs warp anyway after time ? what is the difference in efficiency between the tesla turbine running at high speed and running it at a lower speed ( as fast as possible but low enough to not warp de discs) and: i...

Thread 'Where is my curb stop?'

My water meter is submerged under water for about 95% of the year. Today I took a photograph of the inside of my water meter box because today is one of the rare days that my water meter is not submerged in water. Here is the photograph that I took of my water meter with the cover on: Here is a photograph I took of my water meter with the cover off: I edited the photograph to draw a red circle around a knob on my water meter. Is that knob that I drew a red circle around my meter...
