The novel design process of many types of ships needs estimation of seakeeping properties. Especially ships like Offshore Supply Vessels, Wind Farm Support Vessels, Research Vessels, ferries, military vessels, rescue vessels require extended analysis of ship behavior on rough sea. The main reason for improving ships operability in different sea conditions is need of rising efficiency of propulsion system, reducing hull added resistance, increasing safety and comfort onboard the ship. The recent advances in Computational Fluid Dynamics simulations enable to analyze the seakeeping of a ship in a very efficient way. Together with significant increase of computational power the unprecedented potential of detailed analysis of ship motion on waves can be used in a ship design process. In the article a case study of selected seakeeping simulation of research vessel Nawigator XXI is presented. The numerical modelling approach and selected results of the analysis are discussed.
