... An integrated propeller model interacts automatically with the R ANSE computations. Results for flow details agree well with experiments for deep water and reproduce qualitatively all influences of the shallow water.

... The nonlinear free surface bound a~y condition is met in an iterative scheme that fin earizes differences from arbitrary approximations of the potential and the wave elevation, Fig.1, [12~. The radiation and open-boundary conditions are enforced by shifting sources versus collocation points on the free surface.

... The distribution obtained by this method depends on the propeller inflow and has to determined by art iterative procedure: 1) Solve the RANSE for the ship without pros pelter Calculate the wake distribution at the propeller plane Define the required propeller thrust es ship ret sistance minus corrective towing force Calculate the propeller force distribution using a propeller program with inflow alla required thrust (as computed above)

Towards the ends, the pressure at the channel bottom shows local maxima.

... The strong wave trough for shallow water such a slender hull, it 'should not have such a large gives an additional blockage effect over the central impact on the contour lines. Cura uses a different part of the ship that leads to higher velocities and turbulence model and his results are quite similar to lower pressures.

... In advanced RANSE procedures, the trim and sinkage at the latest iteration are included in the next calculation. Even though He authors' RANSE free surface grid does not seem to follow or express the local depression of mean free surface around the midship region.
From page 755...
... As the problem of insufficient resistance prediction is shared by many other colleagues, it appears that we will need considerable more shared research worldwide before we see consistently accurate resistance predictions for real ship geometries, especially for the more complicated shallow-water hydrodynamics. The propulsion test simulations predicted trim and sinkage using the RSM without propeller action, i.e., the same trim and sinkage as for the resistance test.
