      Gaggero, Stefano; Villa, Diego; Tani, Giorgio; Viviani, Michele (CIMNE, 2017)
      Conference report
      Open Access
      Marine propellers design requirements are always more pressing and the application of unusual propulsive configurations, like ducted propellers with decelerating nozzles, may represent a valuable alternative to fulfil ...
    • The kriso container ship (KCS) test case: an open source overview 

      Gaggero, Stefano; Villa, Diego; Viviani, Michele (CIMNE, 2015)
      Conference report
      Open Access
      In this work, the analysis of the Kriso Container Ship (KCS) test case using the OpenFOA RANS solver is proposed. Both ship resistance in calm water, propeller open water performances, self-propulsion ...
