A hydrodynamic optimization design methodology for a ship bulbous bow under multiple operating conditions

The main objective of this article is to describe an innovative methodology for the hydrodynamic optimization of a ship bulbous bow which considers multiple operating conditions. The proposed method is more practical and effective than the traditional optimization process, which is only based on con...
