A Stereolithographic Model-Based Dense Body Plan Generation Method to Construct a Ship Hydrodynamic Coefficients Database

A ship’s body plan is a vital data resource of ship hydrodynamics analysis, especially for time-domain simulations. Motivated by 3D printing technology, a novel dense body plan generation method is developed in this study. The slicing algorithm is adopted to generate dense 2D body plans fr...
