Abstract
The flow of water around a ship powered by a combustion engine is a key factor in the ship's fuel
consumption. The simulation of flow patterns around ship hulls is therefore an important aspect
of ship design. While lengthy computations are required for such simulations, research by Jeroen
Wackers and Barry Koren has shown that these computations can be conducted with much
greater speed.
