Effects of a Bulbous Bow Shape on Added Resistance Acting on the Hull of a Ship in Regular Head Wave

In this study, the effect of bow shape on resistance acting on a hull in regular head waves was investigated by applying a commercial Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) code. For this purpose, the hydrodynamic performance as well as the resistance of ships with blunt and bulbous bows were simulated....
