Integrated design of semi-displacement patrol crafts
… deal with ships of small size operating in the semi-planing region. This paper puts forth a method for narrowing the design space for patrol craft design. Using a systems approach, a Patrol Craft Assessment Tool (PCAT) was created and tested to aide designers in the initial design and assessment …

Integrating seakeeping in the design of semi-displacement and displacement monohulls
… deal with ships of small size operating in the semidisplacement region. Furthermore, seakeeping at high speeds cannot be reliably calculated by traditional methods such as strip theory due to the hydrodynamic effects that occur in the semidisplacement region. Traditional methods have a vessels' …

A Hybrid Method for Predicting Lift and Drag of Semi-planing/Semi-displacement Hull Forms
… hydrodynamic lift. Therefore, a need for semi-planing/semi-displacement hullforms exists for vessels to carry relatively high loads (between 500 and 3000 tons) with a general length Froude number range between 0.4 and 1.0. A hybrid method for calculating the lift and drag of …

Hydrodynamic evaluation of high-speed semi-SWATH vessels
High-speed semi-displacement vessels have enjoyed rapid development and widespread use over the past 25 years. Concurrent with their growth as viable commercial and naval platforms, has been the advancement of three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics codes that simulate steady and unsteady …
