- Abstract
Resistance serves as a critical performance metric for ships. Swift and accurate resistance prediction can enhance ship design efficiency. Currently, methods for determining ship resistance encompass model tests, estimation techniques, and computational fluid dynamics (CFDs) simulations. There is a need to improve the prediction speed or accuracy of these methods. Machine learning is gradually emerging as a method applied in the field of ship research. This study aims to investigate ship resistance prediction methods utilizing machine learning across various datasets. This study proposes two methods: employing stacking ensemble learning to enhance resistance prediction accuracy with identical ship samples and utilizing various ship resistance prediction models for accurate resistance prediction through transfer learning. Initially focusing on container ships as the research subject, the stacking ensemble learning model outperforms the basic machine learning model, the Holtrop and Mennen method, and the updated Guldhammer and Harvald method based on comparative prediction results. Subsequently, the container ship resistance prediction model achieves precise resistance prediction for bulk carriers. This study offers dependable guidance for applying machine learning in predicting ship hydrodynamic performance.
