Hydrodynamic Analysis and Environmental Adaptation of a Trimaran Model for Nigerian Coastal and Inland Waters
Abstract This study conducted a comprehensive hydrodynamic analysis and environmental adaptation of a trimaran model specifically designed for Nigerian coastal and inland waters. Employing Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations, this research analyzed resistance, stability, maneuvering, and wave-making resistance. The CFD simulations, performed using the k-ω Shear Stress Transport (SST) turbulence model, captured critical hydrodynamic behaviour, […]
