In order to keep the safety of maneuverability under the lateral berthing, it is necessary to estimate the magnitudes and properties of the hydrodynamic forces acting on ship hull quantitatively. In this paper, CFD technique is used to calculate the steady lateral force according to the water depth for Wigley model under the unsteady lateral berthing. The numerical results are analysed into the steady lateral force and the transitional lateral force, and some of reviews for the safety of maneuverability relating to the lateral berthing are discussed based on the computed hydrodynamic forces.
