Overset grid in OpenFOAM

We implement the dynamic overset grid capability into OpenFOAM and use the technique to perform the simulations of ship hydrodynamics with moving rudders and propellers.

One of the best simulations I've seen.

As a naval architect I must say: That's fucking awesome dude!

[ajicandrael]

Wow... This is really amazing, may I know, what kind post processing do you use?

[mihailyakovchuk]

What is a post processing tool with moving camera capabilities?

[AljoschaNicolaiSander]

Very cool indeeed! is there any chance to get one's fingers onto the code?

[rajibroy]

Is there any alternative to the SUGGAR, possibly openSource ?

[DVKajak]

Wow, that's absolutely impressive!!

[mortezamohamadi]

Is it possible to simulate and calculate the hydrodynamic pressure on the front of the boat?

[QingfengDuan]

Excellent work！看到过David Boger 和 Eric Paterson的FoamedOver，用的是 SUGGAR++加DiRTlib做overset grid， 请问沈兄的overset grid是如何生成与处理的呢，自己开发的openfoam lib么？如果是，请收下在下的膝盖

hello, my name is reza, i'm from Indonesia
i like your simulations,
if i may help to you, for give me a way how you do to make this simulation from start until finish?
thank you

[HugoSabbatino]

Did you use VOF for free-surface capturing?

[mateusalves]

Hello, really Nice simulation .
I am a student from Brazil and my conclusion work is about predict the resistance curves of a hull (First I am trying with one model of Series 60 in one velocity), and I want to know If I could talk to you about simulations on OF, It would really help me.
Since then, thank you!

[RiemannsBeard]

Excellent! I try to do something like that for my PhD thesis. Would you mind to point me in the right direction? any hint will be appreciated! Regards, Antonio

How many DOFs for the DTMB 5415M did you use?

[AhsanKhanPhD]

Thanks for your video :)
In OpenFOAM, I want to run the solver but by default it runs with a cuboid body, I have a cylindrical body in .stl format and I want to use it as a floating object.
How can I do this? I have been able to insert the cylindrical mesh in blockMesh by using snappyHexMesh, but how can I use the cylinder as a floating object? Thanks if someone can help me out, I am doing a univerisity project
