Seakeeping index as generalized indicator of ship seakeeping performance

Object and purpose of research. This paper discusses the possibility of a ship design process that would consider seakeeping performance to the greatest extent possible. The purpose of this study was to work out a numerical indicator, an index, reflecting all the seakeeping properties relevant for s...
