Global hydroelastic model for springing and whipping based on a free-surface CFD code (OpenFOAM)

The theoretical background and a numerical solution procedure for a time domain hydroelastic code are presented in this paper. The code combines a VOF-based free surface flow solver with a flexible body motion solver where the body linear elastic deformation is described by a modal superposition of...
