Abstract
Visualization of three-dimensional shipping water flow on running ship foredeck was conducted at the wave basin of NMRI. Two high speed video cameras, a mirror and synchronous stroboscopic sheet light were mounted on starboard deck and the shipping water on portside deck was observed through the transparent current plate attached along the centerline of the model ship. In this paper, the experimental technique for flow visualization is briefed and high speed video images are presented to show three dimensional features of shipping water motions.
