Preliminary Design Content
Tuesday, April 26, 2005, 10:53 - Preliminary Design
My Preliminary Design folder contains information of my various works in progress including:
1) Lagrange Multiplier Hull Design
By taking values of prismatic coefficient, block coefficient, etc, a "best fit" hull design is found through a random walk method. This is written in C++ using X-Windows. I plan to incorporate this with XML for use in my Yacht Design System. I also plan to rewrite the code in Java.
2) Delft regressions
I am using the delft series for use with my Yacht Design System for preliminary resistance data. I find Excel to be burdensome to use, so I'm trying to come up with a better tool.
3) Michell Theory
Again, my current michell theory work is in a spreadsheet. I'm trying to figure out a better method.
4) Scantling Rules
I have not begun to write a scantling rules program. However, I will probably initially write it as a spreadsheet, and then turn it into something better...
