Abstract

Suspension ships are a novel type of ships that utilize a suspension system as an integral part of their structure. One critical aspect of a suspension ship is its stability characteristics. The parameters that affect the initial transverse stability of these ships include the ship’s mass ratio, loaded height of suspension, placement location height of suspension, and beam. It is found that designing a suspension ship in monohull configuration is more difficult than in a catamaran configuration. Special attention is required when the static mass ratio is below 2 for both monohulls and catamarans.
