    hi all,
    I am doing a study on high speed displacement catamarans and I am looking for a reference where I can find the definition of the different hull forms: npl, sspa, series...with datas with the residuary resistance coefficients.

    Can somebody help me ?
    thank you by advance

    Try looking for the AYRS , Amateur Research Society web area . A prof named Lazarus , I think from Australia , will have postings and has a web page .

    Far more math than I can even pretend to comprehend , but it could be for you.

    Also look at

    bbpub@optionline.net
    1-201-447-1834

    for a copy of MULTIHULL SHIPS 495 hardcore pages of heavy reference text on every area of high speed designs.

    May be pricy , but some skool libraries can do wonders with Inter Library loans.

    Have fun,

    FAST FRED
