Ship Manoeuvrability

This work is on manoeuvring in fluids and was towards my doctoral thesis at the Department of Mathematics, University of Manchester.


The work researched into the Oseen equations, the Oseen velocity being a linearisation of the Navier-Stokes velocity to uniform flow. The form of the velocity and pressure far-field expansions were found. These are given in the paper:
