ABSTRACT

Ship design is an iterative process, which is difficult to find a solution in the first

attempt. Process follows a design spiral that converges to an optimum point as the

design progresses. Each cycle includes several calculations like weight distribution,

stability, resistance and powering etc.

In this thesis, tailor made software is developed for stability and resistance

calculations of monohull displacement ships. Program is written with MATLAB

language and a simple graphical user interface is created. After information about

installation and capabilities, usage of the program is given in detail. Finally, stability

calculation of a ship is added for benchmarking code performance against external

criteria.

1. INTRODUCTION

The computer usage in shipbuilding industry was started in 1960’s. Because of the

high cost, they were only used by the largest shipbuilders for hull lines fairing,

hydrostatics, powering calculations etc. In the late 1970’s, computer cost

considerably less than the earlier ones and several commercial ship design and

construction software became available for them. Today, availability of Personal

Computers (PC) make software usage indispensable in all areas of shipbuilding

process [1].

The focus of this thesis is to develop an application that can be used for hydrostatic

and resistance calculations. An important aspect of the work is the development of a

graphical user interface (GUI) that makes the program user friendly.

The thesis contains six chapters including an introduction. In chapter two, an

overview of the program is provided with the algorithm. In chapter three, installation

procedure is given. Chapter four is about the capabilities of the program. In chapter

five, usage of HydroLAB is given in detail. In the last chapter, conclusions are made

and further work is discussed.

2. ABOUT HYDROLAB

HydroLAB is an analyses program that uses offset values to calculate upright

hydrostatics and resistance of ships. HydroLAB fulfills this objective by generating a

mesh structure of ships that uses its interpolated offset values. Flowchart of the

program is shown in Figure 2.1. Codes are given in the attachment.

3. INSTALLATION

HydroLAB is a standalone application that is compiled by using MATLAB R2013a.

In order to run the program on Windows, user must install the MATLAB Compiler

Runtime (MCR) before starting the HydroLAB.exe. MCR enables execution of

compiled MATLAB applications on computers that do not have MATLAB installed.

MCR version R2013a (8.1) 32-bit must be used and can be downloaded free of

charge from;

http://www.mathworks.com/supportfiles/MCR_Runtime/R2013a/MCR_R2013a_win

32_installer.exe

For more information about MCR, visit;

4. CAPABILITIES

HydroLAB has three main features;

Creates lines plan

Calculates upright hydrostatics

Calculates hull resistance

4.1. Generation of Lines Plan

HydroLAB creates AutoCAD script file to generate lines plan of ships. Script is a

text file with one command on each line. By means of this file, lines plan of ships

can easily be obtained without creating surface.

4.2. Calculation of Upright Hydrostatics

Upright hydrostatics at any waterline can be checked by HydroLAB. Furthermore,

this results can be saved as an excel file and several types of graphs can be drawn via

HydroCurve module.

4.3. Calculation of Hull Resistance

HyroLAB has a resistance module that calculates ship hull resistance by using the

regression-based method of Holtrop & Mennen. Resistance module can directly read

hull characteristics itself from offset file or it can be used by entering the

characteristic values of ship manually.

5. USING HYDROLAB

When the program is started, graphical user interface appears. The layout of main

menu is shown in Figure 5.1 below:

Figure 5.1. HydroLAB main menu

5.1. File

This section is used for importing offset file with .txt extension. This file must be

arranged with four column format. First three columns are respectively; longitudinal

position, half breadth and height of the point. Last column is used for naming

stations with numbers. (Please see the file format in Figure 5.2). Sample offset files

are also included in the program.

After importing offset file, some information appears on screen for verifying

correctness of the imported data.

5

Page 13: HydroLAB

Figure 5.2. Offset file format

5.2. Interpolation

Mesh structure of ship can be created by using two interpolation methods; cubic

spline or piecewise cubic hermite interpolating polynomial (Figure 5.3).

5.2.1. Cubic Spline

Assume { }1 2, mK x x x= ,..., is to be a set of given knots. Cubic spline for each

interval can be written as equation 5.1

3 2( ) ( ) ( ) ( )i i i i i i i is x a x x b x x c x x d= − + − + − + (5.1)

For m knot, m-1 interval and 4m-4 unknown; , , ,i i i ia b c d ( 1: 1)i m= − . We need

4m-4 conditions to find the coefficients;

′ ′ = = − −

′′ ′′ = = − −

These are 4m − 6 conditions, but we need two extra conditions. There are several

options for the final two equations;

Natural end conditions; assume the second derivative at the end knots are zero

(equation 5.2).

0 0( ) 0s x′′ = (5.2.a)

1 ( ) 0m ms x−′′ = (5.2.b)

Clamped end conditions; assume the first derivatives at the first and last knots are

known (equation 5.3).

0 0 0( )s x y′ ′= (5.3.a)

1 ( )m m ms x y−′ ′= (5.3.a)

7

Page 15: HydroLAB

“Not-a-knot” end conditions; force continuity of the third derivative at the second

and penultimate points (results in the first two intervals having the same spline

function and the last two intervals having the same spline function) (equation 5.4).

0 1 1 1( ) ( )s x s x′′′ ′′′= (5.4.a)

2 1 1 1( ) ( )m m m ms x s x− − − −′′′ ′′′= (5.4.a)

By default, Matlab therefore HydroLAB uses splines with a not-a-knot condition [2].

5.2.2. Piecewise Cubic Hermite Interpolating Polynomial (Pchip)

As with cubic splines, pchip uses cubic polynomials to connect data points with

continuous first derivatives. However, it differs from cubic splines in that the second

derivatives are not necessarily continuous. Further, the first derivatives at the knots

will not be the same as for cubic splines. Rather, they are expressly chosen so that

the interpolation is “shape preserving”. That is, the interpolated values do not tend to

overshoot the data points as can sometimes happen with cubic splines. The results of

using spline will generally appear smoother because the human eye can detect

discontinuities in the second derivative. In addition, it will be more accurate if the

data are values of a smooth function. On the other hand, pchip has no overshoots and

less oscillation if the data are not smooth [2].

The main idea of pchip is to specify the slopes so that so that the function values do

not overshoot the data values [3].

The length of the k. interval can be written as equation 5.5

1k k kl x x+= − (5.5)

The first divided difference is given in equation 5.6

8

Page 16: HydroLAB

1k kk

k

y yl

+ −∆ =

(5.6)

If k∆ and 1k−∆ have opposite signs or if either of them is zero, then kx is a discrete

local minimum or maximum. Then the slope at kx is zero ( 0)kα = . This situation is

illustrated in the left side of the Figure 5.4. The slopes on either side are opposite

signs, so that the dashed line has slope zero. The red line is piecewise cubic hermite

interpolating polynomial consist of two different cubic and their derivatives are both

zero at kx .

If k∆ and 1k−∆ have the same sign and the two interval have the same length, then

slope at kx is calculated as the average of the reciprocal slopes on either side

(equation 5.7). This is shown in the right side of the Figure 5.4.

(5.7)

If k∆ and 1k−∆ have the same sign but the two interval have different length, then

slope at kx is calculated as a weighted harmonic mean (equation 5.8).

5.3. Lines Plan

This section is useful for checking imported data visually. Beside 2D views (body

plan, sheer plan and waterline plan), user can check the 3D view of mesh structure of

a ship by the 3D Hull option. Different types of views are displayed in Figure 5.6.

5.4. AutoCAD Script

A script is a list of commands which allows you to automate tasks that would take a

long time if you did them manually. After importing offset, lines plan script file

(compatible with AutoCAD) can be generated. 3D Mesh option also generates script

file that creates mesh grid of offset in 3D. Sample drawings can be seen in

Figure 5.7.

5.5. Hydrostatic

5.5.1. Precision

HydroLAB hydrostatic calculations use trapezium integration method on a specified

number of transverse sections in the offset file up to the depth of vessel. Transverse

sections are divided in vertical direction into small strips. The height of those strips

determines the accuracy of results. In most cases, medium precision is enough; but if

the ships cross section has irregular changes, precision should be increased.

5.5.2. Density

User can change the prespecified water density before calculation.

5.5.3. KG

If the value of the KG (ship's center of gravity above keel) is known, it can be

entered. Otherwise, the calculations proceed with default value zero.

5.5.4. Calculate

After checking the above parameters, hydrostatic calculation can be started.

Computation time depends on precision.

5.6. Results

5.6.1 Select Draft(s)

When calculation is completed, user can select a draft or draft range. After selecting

draft(s), click on draft from list to examine the result.

5.6.2 Complete report

Selected results can be displayed in tabulated form for comparison purpose. Sample

output can be seen in Figure 5.8 below.

5.6.3 HydroCurve

Graphical illustration is important because of the great volume of data created during

hydrostatic calculation. The HydroCurve module allows you to view the results

graphically. When the module starts, HydroCurve menu appears and it can be seen in

Figure 5.9.

Figure 5.9. HydroCurve menu

5.6.3.1 Hydrostatics

Hydrostatic values created during calculation can be visually checked from this

section. Sample hydrostatics graph can be seen in Figure 5.10.

5.6.3.2 Form

Form coefficients can be drawn by using this section. Range of graph can be

adjusted. “0-1” option plots all results in same scale in the range of 0-1. If “Auto”

option is selected, all coefficients are drawn in their own scales.

5.6.3.3 Sectional Areas

This part is used for drawing sectional areas curve at the selected draft.

5.6.3.4 Bonjean Curves

Bonjean curve data is calculated as a part of a hydrostatic calculation and can be

visualized from this section.

5.6.4 Excel

In addition to the graphical capabilities described above, selected results can be

exported into excel file.

5.7. Resistance

Resistance module implements the statistical ship power estimation method

presented by Holtrop and Mennen and Holtrop [4, 5]. Required input parameters are

automatically computed from offset, although the user can input or override the

values. When the module starts, Holtrop & Mennen menu appears and it can be seen

in Figure 5.11. The speed range on which the analysis is to be carried out is needed

to be set. At the right bottom of the menu, there is a speed section. User can choose

speed unit as “knot” or “m/s”. At the same time, initial and final speed can be

entered to define a range for analysis, as well as the user can enter number of

calculation point in this range from here. After all parameters are checked,

calculation can be started from analysis section. By using results button, calculation

results will be tabulated in the results window. Graph button can be used for

18

Page 26: HydroLAB

visualizing these tabulated results. Data created during analysis can be exported into

excel file via Excel button.

There is tooltips option at the left bottom. If this option is “on”, when the user hovers

the pointer over an abbreviation without clicking it, a small "hover box" with

information about the item appears.

6. CONCLUSIONS

For a comparison purpose, stability calculation for a fishing vessel is done by using

HydroLAB and Maxsurf. Offset table of the vessel is given in Table 6.1. Stability

results for both program is given in Table 6.2 and can be seen to be in close

agreement with each other.

Currently, HydroLAB can only calculate the upright hydrostatics with zero trim

condition. An algorithm that calculates hydrostatics under trim condition can be

added. Large angle stability analysis will also extend the usage of the program.

The representation of the ship model via offset table sometimes can be restrictive.

Since this limitation can be overcome by providing more data (e.g. station and/or

waterline) with offset file, a geometry (Iges, Step, etc.) import function will be less

time consuming and will improve the quality of the results.
