Studies on Interaction at Sea

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  23 November 2009

Extract

From about 7 years’ research work on the phenomenon of Ship Squat I have produced curves (Fig. 1) that will give predictions of maximum squat for merchant-ship types having block co-efficients, CB, ranging from 0.500 to 0.900. They are for vessels operating in ‘confined channel’ conditions and ‘open water’ conditions, i.e. those without breadth restrictions.
