    Hi,

    I am looking for the following along the length for a boat or ship:

    - Weight distribution curve
    - Buoyancy distribution curve
    - Cross section area variation curve
    - 2nd Moment of area variation curve
    - Still water distortion curve under the above loads

    I need to validate my FEM code that simulates Still Water Distortion for the above mentioned ship.

    Thanks

    Can be any ship.
    I just need to use as an example to show that my FEM code gives same deflection curves as that published example

    If I knew the example, why would I ask the question ?

    Ganzo, my question is simple and straight forward. Please reply if you know.

    Thanks.

    You ask about a published example. However, you need to post a link to the example you refer to.

    I am not refering to any example.

    I am "searching" and "looking for" an example. That was my question.

    If had one already, why would I ask for the one.

    In the text books I have, so far, I could not find an example with all curves included.
    The LOAD, Area MOI, BUOYANCY and DEFLECTION

    thanks
