Abstract
Software package DREDMO of the Delft Hydraulics predicts the behaviour of seagoingcutter dredges in near-shore conditions, which behaviour can be important with respect to theconstruction of the dredge and the assessment of downtime. The motion behaviour of theseagoing dredge has been described by non-linear Cummins Equations, which have to besolved in the time domain.The required input data on hydromechanic coefficients, retardation functions and frequencydomain wave load series can be derived with a newly developed pre-processing programSEWAY-D. This program, based on the frequency domain ship motions program SEAWAY,creates the hydromechanic input data file for DREDMO with a minimum risk on human inputerrors and makes DREDMO much more accessible for less-specialist users.This report describes the underlying hydromechanic theory of the new SEAWAY-D andDREDMO releases. Also, comparisons with frequency domain results have been given.
1 Introduction
The prediction of the behaviour of cutterdredges in near-shore conditions can beimportant with respect to the constructionof the dredge and the assessment ofdowntime. To be able to make downtimepredictions, the Delft Hydraulics togetherwith the Laboratory of Soil Movement and
the Ship Hydromechanics Laboratory(both are laboratories of the DelftUniversity of Technology) developed thecomputer code DREDMO [13] in the early80’s. The behaviour of the seagoingdredge has been described by non-linearso-called Cummins Equations, which haveto be solved in the time domain. Theseequations require hydromechanic
2
coefficients, retardation functions andwave load series as input, together withgeometric and operational data of the shipand the operational working method.The required input data – hydromechaniccoefficients, retardation functions andfrequency domain wave loads - have to bederived from model experiments or fromcalculated data by a suitable ship motioncomputer program. However, the creationof this hydromechanic input data fileappeared to be very much time consuming.Besides this, DREDMO and its pre- andpost-processing programs were running onmain frames, and specialists were requiredto operate the software.
In 1984, Delft Hydraulics decided todevelop a PC version of DREDMO, topromote the use of their commercialpackage.
In the late 80’s the author had developedcomputer code SEAWAY [6,8], afrequency domain ship motions programbased on the strip theory, for calculatingthe wave-induced motions and resultingmechanic loads of mono-hull ships movingforward with six degrees of freedom in aseaway.The potential coefficients and wave loadsare calculated for infinite and finite waterdepths. Added resistance, shearing forcesand bending and torsion moments can becalculated too. Linear(ised) springs andfree surface anti-rolling tanks, bilge keelsand other anti-rolling devices can beincluded. Several wave spectra definitionscan been used.
Computed data have been validated withresults of other computer programs andexperimental data. Based on thesevalidation studies - and experiences,obtained during an intensive use of theprogram by the author, students and over30 institutes and industrial users - it isexpected that this program is free ofsignificant errors.
In 1990, the author used relevant parts ofSEAWAY to create a pre-processingprogram for DREDMO. The Laboratory ofSoil Movement had defined the formats ofthe hydromechanic input data ofDREDMO. This pre-processing program iscalled SEAWAY-D and makes DREDMOmore accessible for less-specialist users.
In 1991, the Laboratory of Soil Movementhad completed their work on DREDMOwith the delivery of PC pre- and post-processing programs and a user-interface,which minimises the risk on human inputerrors; see [13].
In 1992, an input control programSEAWAY-H, to check the input data ofthe offsets of the under water geometry ofthe ship, have been added to theDREDMO software package.
Since 1993, DREDMO calculations can becarried out too for ships with localsymmetric twin-hull sections - as forinstance appear at cutter suction dredges -provided that interaction effects betweenindividual sections are not accounted for.Special attention has been paid tolongitudinal jumps in the cross sections,fully submerged cross sections and(non)linear viscous roll dampingcoefficients. Improved definitions of thehydrodynamic potential masses at aninfinite frequency and the wave loads havebeen added. Finally, many numericalroutines have been improved.
All strip-theory algorithms are described in[9]. A user manual of SEAWAY-D, withan example of the input and the outputfiles, has been given in [11].This report contains a survey of thehydromechanic part of the underlyingtheory of DREDMO and SEAWAY-D anda validation of the calculated results.A separately developed “stripped” versionof DREDMO, called SEAWAY-T, hasbeen used here to verify all algorithms inthe time domain.

The hydromechanic coefficients )(, ωjia ,
)(, ωjib and jic , and the wave load com-
ponents )(ωa iwF can be calculated with
existing 2-D or 3-D techniques.For this, strip theory programs - like forinstance the program SEAWAY [3] - canbe used. According to the strip theory, thetotal hydromechanic coefficients and waveloads of the ship can be found easily byintegrating the cross-sectional values overthe ship length.
The strip theory is a slender body theory,so one should expect less accuratepredictions for ships with low length tobreadth ratios. However, experiments haveshown that the strip theory appears to beremarkably effective for predicting themotions of ships with length to breadthratios down to about 3.0 or sometimeseven lower.The strip theory is based upon the potentialflow theory. This holds that viscous effectsare neglected, which can deliver seriousproblems when predicting roll motions atresonance frequencies. In practice, viscousroll damping effects can be accounted for
by experimental results or by empiricalformulas.The strip theory is based upon linearity.This means that the ship motions aresupposed to be small, relative to the cross-sectional dimensions of the ship. Onlyhydrodynamic effects of the hull below thestill water level are accounted for. Sowhen parts of the ship go out of or into thewater or when green water is shipped,inaccuracies can be expected. Also, thestrip theory does not distinguish betweenalternative above water hull forms.Nevertheless these limitations for zeroforward speed, generally the strip theoryappears to be a successful and practicaltheory for the calculation of the waveinduced motions of a ship.
For the determination of the two-dimensional potential coefficients forsway, heave and roll motions of not fullysubmerged ship-like cross sections, the so-called 2-Parameter Lewis Transformationcan map cross-sections conformally to theunit circle. Also the N-Parameter Close-FitConformal Mapping Method can be usedfor this.
The advantage of conformal mapping isthat the velocity potential of the fluidaround an arbitrary shape of a crosssection in a complex plane can be derivedfrom the more convenient circular crosssection in another complex plane. In thismanner hydrodynamic problems can besolved directly with the coefficients of themapping function, as reported by Tasai[15,16].The advantage of making use of the 2-Parameter Lewis Conformal MappingMethod is that the frequency-dependingpotential coefficients are a function of thebreadth, the draught and the area of thecross section, only.
Another method is the Frank Method [2],also suitable for fully submerged crosssections. This method determines thevelocity potential of a floating or a
5
submerged oscillating cylinder of infinitelength by the integral equation methodutilising the Green’s function, whichrepresents a pulsating source below thefree surface.To avoid so-called “irregular frequencies”in the operational frequency range of notfully submerged cross sections, each Franksection will be closed automatically at thefree surface with a few extra points. Thisresults into a shift of these irregularfrequencies towards a higher frequencyregion.
The two-dimensional pitch and yawcoefficients follow from the heave andsway moments, respectively.
Finally, a method based on work publishedby Kaplan and Jacobs [12] and alongitudinal strip method has been usedfor the determination of the two-dimensional potential coefficients for thesurge motion.
At the following sections, thehydromechanic coefficients and the waveloads for zero forward speed are given asthey can be derived from the two-dimensional values, defined in a co-ordinate system with the origin O in thewaterline.

These formulations of the hydrodynamicexciting and reaction forces and momentscan only be used in the frequency domain,since jia , and jib , both depend on thefrequency of motion ω only and theexciting wave loads have a linear relationwith the wave amplitude. In irregularwaves the response of the body can bedetermined by using the superpositionprinciple, so using linear responseamplitude operators between motion andwave amplitudes.
In the following figures, an example hasbeen given of the hydrodynamic potentialmass and damping and the wave loads forroll in the frequency domain.

4 Time Domain Calculations
As a result of the formulation in thefrequency domain, any system influencingthe behaviour of the floating body shouldhave a linear relation with thedisplacement, the velocity and theacceleration of the body. However, in a lotof cases there are several complicationswhich perish this linear assumption, forinstance the non- linear viscous damping,
8
forces and moments due to currents, wind,anchoring, etc.To include these non-linear effects in thevessel behaviour, it is necessary toformulate the equations of motion in thetime domain, which relates instantaneousvalues of forces, moments and motions.For the description of the hydromechanicreaction forces and moments, due to timevarying ship motions, use has been madeof the classic formulation given byCummins [1] with simple frequencydomain solutions of Ogilvie [14].
4.1 Cummins Equations
The floating object is considered to be alinear system, with translational androtational velocities as input and reactionforces and moments of the surroundingwater as output.The object is supposed to be at rest at time
0tt = . Then during a short time t∆ animpulsive displacement x∆ , with aconstant velocity V , is given to the object.So:
tVx ∆⋅=∆
During this impulsive displacement, thewater particles will start to move. Whenassuming that the fluid is rotation-free, avelocity potential Φ , linear proportional toV , can be defined:
Ψ⋅=Φ V for: tttt ∆+<< 00
in which Ψ is the normalised velocitypotential.
After this impulsive displacement x∆ , thewater particles are still moving. Becausethe system is assumed to be linear, themotions of the fluid, described by thevelocity potential Φ , are proportional tothe impulsive displacement x∆ .So:
x∆⋅=Φ χ for: ttt ∆+> 0
In here, χ is a normalised velocitypotential.
The impulsive displacement x∆ during theperiod ),( 00 ttt ∆+ does not influence themotions of the fluid during this periodonly, but also further on in time.This holds that the motions during theperiod ),( 00 ttt ∆+ are influenced also bythe motions before this period.
When the object performs an arbitrarily intime varying motion, this motion can beconsidered as a succession of smallimpulsive displacements.Then the resulting total velocity potential

Referring to the classic work on thissubject by Cummins [1], these sixequations of motion are called here the"Cummins Equations".
4.2 Hydromechanic Coefficients
The linear restoring spring coefficients3,3C , 5,3C , 4,4C , 3,5C and 5,5C can be
determined easily from the under watergeometry and the centre of gravity of thefloating object. Generally, the other jiC , -values are zero.
To determine jiA , and jiB , , the velocity
potentials jΨ and jχ have to be found,which is very complex.A much easier method to determine jiA ,
and jiB , can be obtained by making use ofthe hydrodynamic mass and damping datafound with existing 2-D or 3-D potentialtheory based computer programs in thefrequency domain. Relative simplerelations can be found between jiA , , jiB ,
and the calculated data of thehydrodynamic mass and damping in thefrequency domain.
For this, the floating object is supposed tocarry out a harmonic oscillation jx withamplitude 1.0 in the direction j :

Studies carried out in the past have showedthat in case of a sufficient high value of Ωthe contribution of iiB ,∆ into iiB , is oftensmall. The potential damping calculationswere based on numerical routines as usedin computer program SEAWAY [8,9]. Inthis program special attention has beenpaid to the potential calculations at veryhigh frequencies. For normal merchantships are 5 radians per second, which canbe reached by the routines in SEAWAY, afairly good value for the maximumfrequency Ω .Thus, the retardation function isapproximated by the numerical solution ofthe integral:

When calculating here the retardationfunctions it assumed that at each frequencyinterval the damping curve is linearlyincreasing or decreasing; see Figure 4.

Now the contribution of this interval intojiB , can be calculated analytically. This
holds that – caused by a large ω or a largeτ - the influence of a strongly fluctuating

With known coefficients and right handsides of these equations, the sixaccelerations can be determined by anumerical method as - for instance - thewell-known Runge-Kutta method.Because of sometimes an extreme highstiffness of the cutter dredge system, DelftHydraulics has adapted the numericalsolution method of these equations inDREDMO for this; see [13].

Thelinear(ised) and the non-linear equations ofpure roll motions, used to analyse freerolling model experiments, are presentedhere. Also, for zero forward ship speed,the algorithms of the empirical method ofIkeda, Himeno and Tanaka [3] are given.

So far, pure roll motions with one degreeof freedom are considered in the equationsof motion. Coupling effects between theroll motion and the other motions are nottaken into account. This can be done in aniterative way.
Experimental or empirical values of 1κ
and 2κ provide starting values for )1(4,4 a
b
and )2(4,4 a
b . With these coefficients, a free-rolling experiment with all degrees of
freedom can be simulated in the timedomain. An analyse of this simulated rollmotion, as being a linear pure roll motionwith one degree of freedom, delivers newvalues for )1(
4,4 ab and )2(
4,4 ab . This
procedure has to be repeated until asuitable convergence has been reached. Aninclusion of the natural frequency 0ω inthis iterative procedure provides also areliable value for the estimated solid massmoment of inertia coefficient xxI .However, this procedure is not included inDREDMO yet.
6.2 Empirical Roll Damping
Because of the additional part of the rolldamping is significantly influenced by theviscosity of the fluid, it is not possible tocalculate the total roll damping in a puretheoretical way. Besides this, experimentsshowed also a non-linear (about quadratic)behaviour of the additional parts of the rolldamping.As mentioned before, the total non-linearroll damping term in the left-hand side ofthe equation of motion for roll can beexpressed as:

For the estimation of the additional partsof the roll damping, use has been made ofwork published by Ikeda, Himeno andTanaka [3]. Their empirical method iscalled here the “Ikeda Method”.At zero forward speed, this Ikeda methodestimates the following components of theadditional roll-damping coefficient of aship:

Ikeda, Himeno and Tanaka claim fairlygood agreements between their predictionmethod and experimental results.They conclude that the method can be usedsafely for ordinary ship forms. But forunusual ship forms, very full ship formsand ships with a large breadth to draughtratio the method should not be alwayssufficiently accurate.Even a few cross sections with a largebreadth to draught ratio can result in anextremely large eddy-making componentof the roll damping. So, always judge thecomponents of this damping.
In the description of the Ikeda method, thenomenclature of Ikeda is maintained hereas far as possible:
ρ density of waterν kinematic viscosity of waterg acceleration of gravityω circular roll frequency
aφ roll amplitude
nR Reynolds numberL length of the shipB breadth of the shipD average draught of the ship

6.2.2 Eddy-Making Damping, )2(4,4 e
b
At zero forward speed the eddy makingroll damping for the naked hull is mainlycaused by vortices, generated by a two-dimensional separation. From a number ofexperiments with two-dimensionalcylinders it was found that for a naked hullthis component of the roll moment isproportional to the roll velocity squaredand the roll amplitude. This means that the
non-linear roll-damping coefficient doesnot depend on the period parameter but onthe hull form only.When using a simple form for the pressuredistribution on the hull surface it appearsthat the pressure coefficient pC is afunction of the ratio γ of the maximumrelative velocity maxU and the meanvelocity meanU on the hull surface:

The bilge keel component of the non-linear roll-damping coefficient is dividedinto two components:- a component NB due to the normal
force of the bilge keels- a component SB due to the pressure an
the hull surface, created by the bilgekeels.
The normal force component NB of thebilge keel damping can be deduced fromexperimental results of oscillating flatplates. The drag coefficient DC dependson the period parameter or the Keulegan-Carpenter number. Ikeda measured thisnon-linear drag also by carrying out freerolling experiments with an ellipsoid withand without bilge keels.This results in a non-linear sectionaldamping coefficient:

Ikeda carried out experiments to measurethe pressure on the hull surface created bybilge keels. He found that the coefficient

−pC of the pressure on the back-face of
the bilge keel and the length of thenegative pressure region depend on theperiod parameter.

7 Comparative Simulations
As far as ship motions are concerned,SEAWAY-T is an equivalent ofDREDMO. To check the calculationroutines for the time domain, as used in thepre-processing program SEAWAY-D andin the time domain program SEAWAY-T,comparisons have been made with theresults of the frequency domain programSEAWAY [8] for a number of ship types.An example of the results of thesevalidations is given here for the S-175containership design in deep water, as hasbeen used in the Manual of SEAWAY too,with principal dimensions as given below.

This S-175 containership design had beensubject of several computer andexperimental studies, co-ordinated by theShipbuilding Research Association ofJapan and the Seakeeping Committee ofthe International Towing Tank Conference[4,5]. Results of these studies have beenused continuously for validating programSEAWAY after each modification duringits development.For this ship, the motions have beencalculated in the frequency domain and inthe time domain at zero forward shipspeed.Additional data, used during the timedomain simulations, are:- maximum frequency of damping
curves: 00.5=Ω rad/s- frequency interval: 05.0=∆ω rad/s- maximum time in retardation
functions: 00.50, =Γ ji s- time interval: 25.0=∆t sThe potential coefficients and thefrequency characteristics of the wave loadsat zero forward speed, calculated bySEAWAY-D, have been input inSEAWAY-T and the calculations havebeen carried out for a regular wave
amplitude of 1.0 meter. Extra attention hasbeen paid here to the roll motions. In bothcalculations, the viscous roll damping hasbeen estimated with the Ikeda method. Inthe frequency domain, the results arelinearised for this wave amplitude of 1.0meter. Because of the relatively small roll-damping at zero forward speed, in thenatural frequency region the initialconditions of the wave loads will occurunstable roll motions in the time domain.Then, a long simulation time is required toobtain stable motions.
The agreements between the amplitudesand the phase lags of the six basic motions,calculated both in the frequency domainand in the time domain, are remarkablygood. Some comparative results of the sixmotion amplitudes of the S-175containership design are given in Table I.

Comparisons for a rectangular barge (100x 20 x 4 meter), with hoppers (25 x 14meter) fore and aft, are given in Table IIfor the natural roll frequency region. Theexperimental roll damping data were inputhere.

Based on these and a lot of othercomparisons between the time domain andthe frequency domain approaches forlinear systems, it may be concluded thatSEAWAY-D + SEAWAY-T has an equalaccuracy as the frequency domainpredictions of these linear motions by theparent program SEAWAY.This conclusion holds that the pre-processing program SEAWAY-D providesreliable results.
8 Conclusions and Remarks
This new release of SEAWAY-D includesthe use of local twin-hull cross-sections,the N-Parameter Close-Fit ConformalMapping Method and (non)linear viscousroll damping coefficients. Special attentionhas been paid to longitudinal jumps in thecross sections and fully submerged cross-sections. Also, improved definitions of thehydrodynamic potential masses at aninfinite frequency and the wave loads havebeen added.
Based on a lot of comparisons, madebetween the time domain and thefrequency domain approaches for
linear(ised) systems, it may be concludedthat the computer codes SEAWAY-D andSEAWAY-T have an equal accuracy asthe frequency domain predictions of theselinear(ised) motions by the parent codeSEAWAY.
This conclusion holds that the pre-processing program SEAWAY-D deliversreliable results. It is advised however tocarry out a similar validation study withthe computer codes SEAWAY-D andDREDMO too.
