I know. But often engineering requires simplifications so I would like to have a way for analyzing rudder sections. I have it beside me right...
I am trying to evaluate different rudder sections for a cargo ship. The Reynolds numbers are above 10M and the flow is quite turbulent because...
Well, I am not going to get all of those books. I think I'll buy four or five of them. Hopefully I will get recommendations that help me choose...
I am thinking about designing and building a small daysailing trimaran using foam glass sandwich method. I have in the past reads some books about...
Impressive building speed. Are you going to paint it? Sounds good. Because of size and design compromises my boat would never sail extremely fast...
I have now written some code for my multihull VPP. The polar curves it draws looks about right shape. The hull resistance formula is quite poor...
Nice looking boat. It has many similarities with drafts I have made. Am I right in my guess, that mast is designed to stand without diamond...
I haven't found any software that isn't very expensive and can calculate multihull polars. Maybe I could do a simple one myself. My idea is to...
Is there nobody here, who has read most books about boat design and construction and can give recommendations? :confused:
Your trimaran will be interesting to see.
Weta seems fun boat but I still would like to design my own. It seems top and bottom halves of floats in Weta are mirrored. That could make...
Thanks for comments. The reason for thinking trimaran over catamaran is that in small catamaran it is hard to find decent place for cockpit. I...
I am interested in designing and building a sailboat. The reguirements are: - affordable - small enought that self building isn't too hard and it...
