A Simple method for predicting the maximum squat of a high-speed displacement ship

A simple formula is developed for predicting the maximum squat of a displacement ship as it passes through the transcritical speed range. This is given in terms of a maximum sinkage coefficient, which is almost constant across a wide range of hull forms. Satisfactory agreement is shown with model te...
