Frosty, just gathering experience- that's why this forum was developed. If weight was not an issue, two speed steering would be possible. And...
Hi, I'm curious how many wheel turns do you find the most optimal for a sailboat steering wheel? From ,,0'' position to fully turned starboard...
Hey guys, I just read a great book on boat laminates ie ,,Marine Composites" by Eric Greene. I want to learn as much as possible about...
By the way... Is it possible to make a Bachelor of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering and then make a Master in Naval Architecture? Does that...
I'm a member of Warsaw University of Technology scientific club looking for interesting project to take part in together with my colleagues. I...
As far as I understand, you are asking about a complex problem... Optimum VCG for any powerboat is derived from a calculation of equilibrium trim...
Indeed, exporting IGES file from FREEship is working well, however I have to remember to model the surface in the FREEship, not in DELFTship....
Thank you micspoko for your help. I do appreciate your feedback :) However I reckon that you exported some mesh file out of DELFTship ( either...
Hi , New project, but still old issue.... I would be very grateful if you could once again help me and convert this .fbm to .iges so that rhino...

So it seems that an old, good ,,rule of thumb" still applies and that there are small chances to make a ,,light- weight revolution" by doing just...
Currently I want to determine in more scientific way than just say ,,Well, let's put there two 100 g/m^2 WR cloth and that should do the thing...
Rick, thank you very very much :) That's exactly what I was expecting to have. Regards, Kuba
I would be very grateful if somebody would be so kind and convert (export) my .fbm file so that I can open it as a precise 3D surface in Rhino...
Well, IMHO, I think that this 90 degrees load case is the maximum reasonable assumption for transverse stiffness. You should be carefull when...
Stephen, Curves of form? First time seen one... I'd reccomend you to model it in rhino :/ it doesn't have the sophisticated stuff you mentioned,...
The link to the rar files didn't work ;/ however I found two sites that might be of uor interest... http://www.3dtraining.ch/ and...
If sb has one, please do also mail it to me ( studio.btg@gmail.com ). Thank you in advance!
