aluminium boat design

[saint]

I am doing a final year project on 'Aluminium boat bow analyses for variety of loading conditions.'

The project is expected to cover;
i) Single hull (Length - 10m, Beam - 2.7m, inboard engine)
ii) Catamaran (Length - 10m, Beam - 4.2m, inboard engine)
iii) Material thickness
iv) Boat frame construction.

I would really appreciate guidance and support on how to;
a) Draw hull profile
b) Determine material thickness
c) Frame spacing method.

I would appreciate method of drawing hull shapes in 'Solidworks' to enable me analyse the loads using 'Cosmosworks'


Thanks and God bless.
