Wave-making resistance refers to a type of hydrodynamic resistance that occurs when a vessel moves through water, creating waves as it displaces water. This phenomenon is especially significant for ships and boats, as the energy required to generate these waves contributes to the overall resistance that the vessel experiences as it moves.
