- Worth noticing
- The page compares predictions with towing-tank data and reports mean absolute errors from 5.7% to 7.9% for several hull cases.
Field notes
The described workflow starts with a hull model in Rhinoceros and user-supplied loading and speeds; the plug-in calculates each speed at its own running trim and sinkage. The page includes comparison tables attributed to Begović & Bertorello (2012) and Lee et al. (2017), with reported mean absolute errors ranging from 5.7% to 7.9% in the displayed cases. These are product-page figures, not independently checked results.
