2. Naval engineering dimensioning method

In naval engineering, as in other industrial sectors, dimensioning methods are based on models and data from a variety of sources: the development of numerical simulation has interacted with experimental and analytical approaches. Far from opposing each other, experimental methods, analytical approaches and numerical models complement each other, responding to different needs and stages in the design process.

2.1 Experimental data

The design of naval structures relies on a wealth of data from experimental campaigns carried out under selected conditions, such as hydrodynamic test facilities (traction tank, wave tank, etc., figure 2 ) and...
