The hidden physics of ship stability, form stability, metacenters, and why keels disappeared
Modern cargo ships do not rely on heavy keels the way yachts do, they rely on hull shape to create stability as loads stack higher. This breaks down weight stability vs form stability, metacenters, ...
The committee reviews U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) stability regulations and guidance documents and advises on how to improve their consistency, clarity, and usability. The committee’s report analyzes ...
