Abstract

The behavior of a vessel slowly turning in waves is studied as a nonlinear bifurcation problem making use of the bifurcation package BIFPACK ([9]). For two different shipmodels the oscillations of the ship are studied. Both external and parametric excitation effects resulting from the wave motion are considered.
