一、請將下列英文譯為中文:(20 分)
The capability to sustain speed in a seaway is one of the primary objectives in the design
of a marine vehicle. Traditionally, the power required to attain a certain speed in a seaway
has been determined from the still water performance of the vessel after making an
allowance of 15 to 30% for wind and waves. However, progress made in seakeeping, in
both analytical methods and experimental techniques, makes it possible to determine the
added resistance in a seaway with sufficient accuracy for design purposes. The seaway
resistance is often represented by either an addition of power to sustain the speed or a
speed loss to maintaining the same amount of power as is used in calm water.
