Abstract
In previous works, the authors have developed the component-type mathematical model which can predict turning hydrodynamic forces by analyzing oblique hydrodynamic forces with in drift angle 90 degrees. In this paper, we have predicted maneuvering hydrodynamic forces by means of the mathematical model using principal particulars of a ship and using different analysis ranges of drift angles of oblique hydrodynamic forces. Then, we have simulated the steering motion by using these estimated hydrodynamic forces. As a results, it is found that the component-type mathematical model can predict turning hydrodynamic forces with large drift angles through oblique hydrodynamic forces and finally predict the maneuvering motion precisely.
