Has anyone used the numerical beach capabilities within the ShipHydroSIG package/ navalFoam?

I have tried to use the numerical beach for free surface ship flows but it creates waves near inlet and...

Thank you for your response,
I've been using linearUpwind grad(U) where grad(U) is cellLimited Gauss linear 1. Is it reasonable to think that my oscillations would vanish if I would use...

I've refined my mesh (made using snappyHexMesh) to 6M cells and a fixed time step yielding a maxCo of ~1.5 and maxAlphaCo of ~1 (using nAlphaSubcycles of 5).
Unfortunately the resistance evolves...

kilroy, thank you for your reply.

I'm simulating a model ship of 6.5 m length at a speed of 2 m/s. Is it normal to find oscillations of fairly constant amplitude and period time from simulation...

Are you referring to if the transport eq. for the volume fraction is solved implicitly/explicitly?

If so, (this is a question for everyone), does implicit solving of the alpha1 in OF yield lower...
