Popis:	Due to the interaction between the main hull and side hulls, different layouts and lengths of side hulls affect the wave loads significantly. Based on three-dimensional potential theory and Green’s function, this article gives the significant values for wave loads, including vertical shear forces and vertical bending moments at different locations on the main hull, and transverse bending moments at the junction of the cross structure and main hull. In addition, a parametric optimization of wave loads for different layouts and lengths of side hulls were perfomed. Several speeds and wave headings were also considered. Finally, spectral analysis was conducted to attain load distribution. The conclusions of this study are conducive to the design and optimization of this new type of ship.
