How To Design a Boat

Содержание
1 PRELIMINARY SKETCHES AND CALCULATIONS
Equipment ? The initial sketch ? Freeboard and shear? Beam ? Depth ? Displacement calculation
2 COMPLETING THE PRELIMINARY DESIGNS
Displacement ? Longitudinal centre of gravity (leg) and longitudinal centre of buoyancy (leb) ? Other tonnages?Hull form?Flatties ? Round bilges ? Fin keels ? Centreboards ? Rudders ?Sail area
3 MAKING THE WORKING DRAWINGS
Drawing board ? Splines ?Weights ? Curves ?Planimeter ?Sundries ? Rabbet (or rebate) line ?Canoe stern, round bilge version ? Grid ?Waterlines ?Buttocks ? Diagonals ?Curve of areas ?Drawing the lines ? Offset table ? Hard chine lines plan ? Conic projection ? Centre of effort (СЕ) and 'lead'
4 MOTOR BOAT DESIGN
Speed/length ratio ?Wave making ? Motor boat hulls
? Low wave making types ?Beam and lcb ? Deadrise
? Spray rails ? Speed prediction ?Stepped hulls ? Propellers ?Tunnel sterns
5 RESISTANCE, SAIL PLANS AND HULL BALANCE
Resistance ?Prismatic coefficient ?The rig ?Hull balance ?Aspect-ratio of hull appendages ?End plates
? Propellers on sailing craft
6 CONSTRUCTIONAL CONSIDERATIONS
Ply construction ?Cold moulding ? WEST ? Traditional timber (with variations) ? Double diagonal Strip and long diagonal planking ? Steel ? Aluminium alloy ?Ferro-concrete ?GRP
7 STABILITY
8 FURTHER DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
Camber ? Stanchions and bulwarks ? Rake of masts ? In conclusion
