Abstract
Much of the literature available for the computerized prediction of ship performance is devoted to the equations and formula that mathematically represent model test results. It is not the intent of this paper to reiterate this body of work, but rather to provide background and guidance to designers regarding the confident application of these numerical methods through the use of commercially or individually developed personal computer software. The paper covers these issues by reviewing basic methodologies for the prediction of resistance and propulsive coefficients; by introducing various numerical formula and data; by describing techniques to correlate predicted results with known performance; and by presenting a systematic approach to predicting the various aspects of a vessel's performance with personal computer software.
