Abstract

This paper describes the induced pressure distribution, free-surface waves, vortical flow and wave drag of an exact solution of low-aspect-ratio flat-ship theory. An energy balance is derived which relates the spray drag, the energy carried away by the far-field waves and the vortical flow to the total wave drag.
