Ah geez.
What do you mean by basic stability of a floating vessel, i have read some papers about making sailing model, one of it was talking about metacenter.
I am more likely treating that ship like a body that is moved by external forces.
like i said earlier ill post videos:
i would like to...
Ah maybe you don't know that but applying only gravity and buoyancy forces, make the ship (lets consider we drop ship from 1 meter above waterline) bob forever. well maybe not forever i understand that gravity opposes buoyancy but still its not enough to just put it on waterplane and hope that...
- 1.66 of meter
- i am not quite sure how to do that
-sorry my english is bad i do not understand that question
no, i can't make ship still without calculating proper drag.
I changed center of mass position to be lower, now on still water is situated somewhat 30 centimeters (0.3 m) above...
The hull i described is uniform density and its mass is 120 000 kg so i do not use anything that is ballast. Ship is floating on water when its not moved, when in motion it acts like it shouldn't. and most of the times center of mass is located above center of buoyancy (in meaning that center of...
Hello there, I'm trying to write a sailing model simulator (for ships with sails) i got buoyancy force and gravity force calculated so far.
Before i go any further i need to tell you how i am calculating anything, and what is my ship exactly.
First of all i am making that on a phone, it looks...
