Swath Research Vessels

hi dear friends,
i'm saeed 20 from iran
and i'm a marine engineer from sharif univ.
i worked on "Conceptual Design of a Swath Research Vessels"
i'm glad to share my researches with you if you want,
best regards
bye

 

Welcome, Saeed!
What size is your the SWATH you are investigating? For example, what are the displacement volume, length, beam and draft?

If you want to calculate the resistance of your vessel, you can use my program Michlet which is available for free from:
www.cyberiad.net/michlet.htm

There is an example file for a ship similar to the SWATH "T-Agos" you can use as a comparison with your vessel.

Regards,
Leo.

 

go ahead and share your research Sorena, i'm certainly interested
i made 3 strong poly swath legs in need of alu piping and fitting, centerpod, engine with extra long tail and actually much more, i like to test as swath motorbike
anyone with more time and money interested can have them long as i get the specs or have a tryout when done but wait, this is the virtual section i see now...

 

hi leo,

dear leo,
i worked on a swath with this specifications:
L: 30 m
B:14 m
D:2.8
Speed: 20 Kn
DWT: 15

i certainly use your program to calculate resistance
thanks a million

 

hi yipster,

dear yipster,
such a great plan,
i wanna know more about this
best regards

 

here some stability aproximations for the bike, idea was a small vehicle for wider waters and a bit rougher waves since inland speed limits restrict speedboating and small speedboats cant handle bigger waves. save fuel in the proces and more but how bout your research and swath findings?
