Trajectories for ONR Tumblehome maneuvering in calm water and waves

The new Iowa Institute of Hydraulic Research wave basin facility is described, which was specifically designed for global and local flow measurements around free running models for benchmark CFD validation data, including six plunger-type wave makers, x carriage and y, θ sub-carriage/turntable with the model tracking system, the model release system, and semi-captive mount. Trajectories are presented for the ONR Tumblehome maneuvering in calm water and head and following waves.
