Abstract
The influence of draft and amplitude of oscillations on the bilge keel force and hull pressure distribution are considered. The bilge keel force is presented in terms of non-dimensional drag and mass coefficients including higher harmonic components. The numerical results are also compared with the industry standard empirical method for calculation of roll damping proposed by Ikeda et al. [4]. In general, a good agreement between the results of the present numerical method and the experimental data is obtained and the differences with those predicted by the empirical method are addressed.
