5.2 UNSTEADY WAVE FIELD
For the unsteady problem, the body and free sur-
face discretizations are made accordingly with
Fig.1 Hull discretization for the fast ship steady wave elevation previously obtained. The
discretized hull surface will have a wavy shape
on the upper boundary and the collocation points
of the free surface will be placed on the fully
nonlinear steady wave surface. For satisfying the
radiation condition was used the same shifting
technique as in the steady flow case.
