Hull analysis plugin for Rhino

The hydrostatics are calculated by analysing transverse sections. I'm using Rhino's built in analysis function only to calculate section areas and area centroids. This is much more reliable compared to Rhino's built in hydrostatic tool. If you are analysing a symmetric model for example the hull does not have to end exactly on the x - z plane. In fact you can even analyse a symmetric model of a catamaran where the hull is far away from the x - z plane.

The mass function does use the Rhino volume calculation to determine the mass of solid objects.

Hope this helps.
