Dynamic vertical bending moments are determined for a military vessel hull in still water and under head waves, with a weakly nonlinear method. The domain for hydrostatic and undisturbed pressures integration is time-variant and generated with a quad-tree adaptive mesh algorithm, on which exact formulations for pressure on polygonal elements are used. Linear radiation and diffraction pressures, on another mesh superimposed with the aforementioned one, are calculated with a frequency domain code. Results are compared with published experimental ones for small and large wave heights.
