Abstract

The fouling of the barnacle can cause harm towards the vessels especially to the performance of the vessels such as the powering of the ship and fuel consumption. The aim of this research is to analyze the growth rate of the barnacle and estimate the effect of barnacle fouling towards the ship performances which is in term of ship resistance and powering. A total of 7 images of barnacle at three different locations by using MATLAB to analyze the growth rate of the barnacle. Finally, the results from the image processing are the input for the mathematical modelling in C++ to get the resistance of the ship. In this research, each different location produces different data of growth rate. The growth rate of the barnacle at location 1 is 0.3021% per day. Meanwhile, location 2 and location 3 0.202% per day and 0.0356% per day. As for the ship resistance, it can be concluded that the ship resistance increases for an average of 21.49% for location 1, 17.65% for location 2 and 22.78% at the location 3.
