COMPUTER PROGRAM DOCUMENTATION: HULL FORM DERIVED FROM PARENT.

Abstract

A FORTRAN IV computer program is described, which, given a parent form described by offsets on stations, derives a new form that simultaneously satisfies stated values of the prismatic coefficient, longitudinal center of buoyancy, maximum section coefficient, breadth, and draft. The program produces a new body plan and printed and/or punched offsets. Formulas, input and output formats, FORTRAN listing, and sample problems are included. (Author)
