Abstract

ABSTRACTNaval architects perform a number of very important roles in the design of naval ships. To address the many technologies associated with these myriad roles would be an enormous undertaking. The authors, therefore, chose to concentrate their efforts on an overview of technology in support of the naval architect's important role of designing the hull forms and appendages for future combatants. Thus, the objectives of this paper are to review existing and emerging ship hydrodynamics technologies which are expanding the spectrum of hull design options and their associated ship performance characteristics and to clearly demonstrate that there are many opportunities for further advancements in ship hydrodynamics technologies that will significantly aid the nation's naval architects in contributing their best to our future combatants.
