This paper deals with the numerical simulation of a ship’s manoeuvring performance in regular waves. This is made possible by employing the time-domain code ELIGMOS, which adopts a hybrid formulation to couple seakeeping and manoeuvring contributions. The first and steady second-order wave-induced forces are incorporated, implementing a multidimensional interpolation scheme to account for their dependency on the instantaneous heading and forward speed values. Two methods have been adopted for the calculation of the added resistance regarding the size of the wavelength (short or long wave seas), namely a far and a near-field one, using the hydrodynamic software NEWDRIFT+ and NEWDRIFT v.7. Low-frequency hydrodynamic manoeuvring forces are incorporated by adopting the expressions suggested by the Japanese MMG (Manoeuvring Modelling Group) method. Validation of the suggested methodology is attempted through the comparison of numerical simulations of turning circle tests in calm water and in regular waves with available experimental evidence for the S-175 container ship.
