The aim of this research is to create new dimensionless relations in rigid wedge impact problems, which provides the possibility of calculating wedge kinematic parameters with acceptable accuracy. To accomplish this, the rigid wedge impact problem is simulated and validated using the Dynamic Fluid Body Interaction (DFBI) model in STAR-CCM+. In this study, new non-dimensional relations for the kinematical parameters of the wedge are derived utilising the Buckingham π theorem and data-driven analysis. It is observed that the use of appropriate dimensionless relations in any type of symmetric water impact problems involving a wedge shaped object will result in a unique diagram of each wedge kinematical parameter. This ultimately leads to the creation of two separate formulas to determine the maximum wedge acceleration value and its corresponding time. These formulas play a vital role in the design of high-speed crafts, and planing vessels.
