... ABSTRACT In recent, a number of coastal ferries have high-speed catamaran hull forms, and the waterjet propulsions are widely used for the catamarans for high propulsion efficiency at high forward speeds. Catamarans with large spaces on the deck can transport many passengers and vehicles...

... Abstract The horizontal clearance effect was studied on the bending and torsion stresses in catamaran cross-deck. Also the influence of the hull geometric characteristics on the stresses of deck stringer under torsion is presented for rectangular compartment of open type ship. The computer...
