Full Scale Investigation of Bilge Keel Effectiveness at Forward Speed
… there have been model experiments where the bilge keels were instrumented in order to directly measure their damping force upon the vessel. To build upon this work and to validate it when applied to full scale vessels, a trial using the Italian naval vessel Nave Bettica was performed. The …

Analysis and Modeling of Hydrodynamic Components for Ship Roll Motion in Heavy Weather
… affects the amplitude of ship roll motion. Bilge keels have been used on ships for nearly two centuries, to increase damping and reduce the severity of roll motions experienced by a ship in waves. Because ship motions are more severe in extreme sea conditions, large roll angles may occur. …
