While displacement type Deep-V mono hulls have superior seakeeping behaviour at speed, catamarans typically have modest behaviour in rough seas. It is therefore a logical progression to combine the superior seakeeping performance of a displacement type ...

Bulbous bow shape optimization
The aim of this study is to prove the usefulness of a bulbous bow for a fishing vessel, in terms of drag reduction, using an automated shape optimization procedure including hydrodynamic simulations. A bulbous bow is an appendage that is known to reduce the drag, thanks to its influence on the bow wave system. However, the definition of the geometrical

Preliminary Bulbous Bow Design Tool Applying K Nearest Neighbours Classification and Regression Model [PDF]
Designing bulbous bows for ships remains a challenging task. Their impact on different design attributes as well as their change in performance when operating off their intended design condition renders this as a multidimensional problem.

Analisa CFD Pengaruh Penambahan Appendage pada Lambung Katamaran terhadap Hambatan Viskos
Penambahan tonjolan (appendages) pada lambung kapal sering dimanfaatkan oleh para desainer untuk meningkatkan performa seekeping kapal ketika beroperasi di air, seperti misalnya penggunaan pelat lajur bilga (bilge keel) dan tonjolan haluan (bulbous bow).
