Joint High-Speed Sealift (JHSS) vessel concepts were recently investigated by the Navy for inter-theater transport. A monohull and a trimaran design were produced in order to further technology development and reduce technical risks. This report documents ship motion assessment studies using each of these two preliminary hull configurations. These assessment studies covered three diverse potential mission profiles in an effort to investigate the ship performance over a range of plausible scenarios. The three missions considered were an open ocean high-speed transit; a coastal waters, zero-speed helicopter cargo transfer; and an open ocean, stricken vessel in large waves survival. The simulation software used to perform the ship motion calculations was the ShipX Vessel Response program (VERES).
