Modern cargo ships do not rely on heavy keels the way yachts do, they rely on hull shape to create stability as loads stack higher. This breaks down weight stability vs form stability, metacenters, ...

Some ships naturally hold a straight course, while others constantly need correction from the rudder. This video breaks down the physics of hull shape, length to beam ratio, and block coefficient to ...

Ship stability and flooding dynamics are critical areas in contemporary naval architecture and marine safety research. This field examines how vessels respond to damage and the subsequent ingress, ...
