摘要：A two-dimensional boundary element method is used to study the hydrodynamics of a single barge with prescribed motions of large amplitudes and high frequencies. The wave radiation problem is solved in the time domain based on the fully nonlinear potential flow theory. For numerical simulations, special treatments like plunging wave cutting and remeshing approaches are presented in detail. The numerical schemes are verified through comparing with analytical results. Both the generated outgoing wave amplitudes and hydrodynamic coefficients can be calculated with sufficient accuracy. Then, we focus on large heave, sway and roll motions to investigate the nonlinear effects on hydrodynamic forces, respectively. In particular, the heave motion with two frequencies is also simulated to study the interactions between results at different frequencies. It is interesting to see the sum and difference frequency components and the envelopes in time histories as a result. For forces caused by forced sway or roll motions, there are only even-order harmonics for vertical forces and only odd-order harmonics for horizontal forces. Finally, a single body with combined sway, heave and roll motion is studied to examine the interactions between motion modes.
