Incorporating steps into a hull reduces the wetted surface, promoting improved hydrodynamic lift and reduced resistance at high speeds, provided that the step is designed appropriately. Traditional hydrodynamics studies rely on scaled model testing in to...

The scope of the present study is to investigate the effects of various geometrical hull features, such as tunnels, spray rails and whiskers on the hydrodynamic performance of a high-speed planing hull. The criteria being tested to emphasize the boat per...

A tunneled planing craft is a high-speed boat with two tunnels over the hull bottom that are designed to improve the vessel?s performance. Hydrodynamic performance of tunneled planing hulls in calm-water is well-known, however, current information on wav...

Fatigue analysis and life cycle prediction of a naval craft or a commercial ship are one of the most critical phases of structural integrity calculations. Many structural failures have occurred due to insufficient structural design, production methods, a...

The use of ventilated hulls is rapidly expanding. However, experimental and numerical analyses are still very limited, particularly for high-speed vessels and for stepped planing hulls. In this work, the authors present a comparison between towing tank t...

Planing hull vessel built with polymer matrix laminates and fiberglass reinforcements (GFRP) suffer structural damage due to the phenomenon of slamming during navigation, due to the impact of the boat hull on the free surface of the water at high speed. ...
