Ship resistance prediction for naval vessels is challenging due to free-surface effects and very high Reynolds numbers. The accuracy and reduced cell count provided by structured meshes are nearly a prerequisite for these applications. In this webinar, we will demonstrate how to create a structured mesh suitable for low Froude number ship resistance predictions on the U.S. Navy Surface Combatant DTMB 5415 ship hull.
