...This is because waves generated from various parts of the ship interfere with each other, and by making good use of this interference so that the crests and troughs of the waves overlap, wave-making resistance can be reduced. A bulbous bow achieves this effect by making the waves generated by the ship interfere with those generated by a sphere, and there are other vessels with a similar function, such as a bulb at the stern end. When the ship is far enough away from the ship, the waves it generates are linear dispersive waves called Kelvin waves, but when it is close to the ship, it is a nonlinear wave, which also breaks and has dissipative properties. ... *Some of the terminology that mentions "bulbous bow" is listed below.

…これは船体の各部から発生した波が干渉しあうためで,この干渉をうまく利用して波の山と谷とが重なるようにすれば,造波抵抗を低減させることができる。船首を球状にした球状船首(バルバスバウbulbous bow)は,船の起こす波と球の起こす波とを干渉させてこの効果を得るものであり,同様の働きをするものに船尾端バルブなどがある。船のつくる波は船から十分離れた位置ではケルビン波と呼ばれる線形分散波であるが,船の近くでは非線形な波であって,波崩れなども伴い,散逸的な特性ももっている。… ※「bulbous bow」について言及している用語解説の一部を掲載しています。 出典|株式会社平凡社世界大百科事典 第2版について | 情報 |
