[ATTACH]Here's one of the Phil Bolger powerboats that presaged the modern America's Cup hydrofoil sailboat hulls.
I have worked in design offices, and am attempting to share things I've learned. Some of that work has been bringing boats into intact stability...
I agree, but a GM required can be derived from the offset load test, which can then be utilized in designing a boat that has the intact stability...
An iterative process will always be limited by the time it takes to perform each iteration. Where I'm going to claim the virtue of experience in...
I agree entirely, As Hoc. My solution allows one to solve the problem iteratively. Is a better, more direct approach possible? It may well be....
I've provided additional comments on the relationship between intact stability and capacity per ISO 12217 at The ISO 12217 Stability Series is...
The following is my contribution to revising ISO 12217 as communicated to ABYC. ABYC is the American National Standards Institute (ANSI)...
That's my hope, too - but my sense is there are parties still feeling each other out, and that the transition is going to be a slow process. I...
Yes, it happened before IBEX. Aaron Porter resigned, but then was reinstated. This contest, as you may know, was the Parting Shot in the...
Thank you DCockey. Who is going to METSTRADE and would print & hand out eLDC Entry Packets? Any other ideas for how to promote the contest?...
Concerning a simplified approach to power prediction, Appendix A from Robert Beebe's Voyaging Under Power, 4th Edition, is attached. “Wyman’s...
We discussed the problem of getting TRIMMED NURBS surfaces to compile properly as CFD models.
The entry packet is ready! (attached)
It may be that I'm not understanding clearly what the question is - but allow me to suggest there are people & companies who have been working in...
