HYDROSTATICS
Review (3.1)
Archimedes Principle:

An object partially or fully submerged in a fluid
will experience a resultant vertical force equal
in magnitude to the weight of the volume of
fluid displaced by the object.

This force is called the buoyant force or the
force of buoyancy(FB).

Changes in the Center of Gravity (3.2)
The Center of Gravity (G) is the point at which all
of the mass of the ship can be considered to
be located (for most problems).

It is referenced vertically from the keel of the ship
(KG or VCG).

(1) Shifting, (2) adding, or (3) removing weight
changes the location of the Center of Gravity.
(g refers to the CG of a weight).

Examples...
HYDROSTATICS
Transverse Shift in the Center of Gravity
(3.2.3)
Shifts side to side of the Center of Gravity.

Starboard is positive and port is negative.


As in Vertical case, the Transverse movement of
G may be caused by either (1) addition, (2)
removal, or (3) shifting of weights.
HYDROSTATICS
Transverse Shift in Center of Gravity (3.2.3)
Results in a List on the Vessel.

List occurs when a vessel is in static
equilibrium and down by either the port or
starboard side. No external forces are required to
maintain this condition and it is permanent unless
the Center of Gravity changes.

List is different from heeling. Heeling
occurs because an external couple is acting on
the vessel. Heeling is a more temporary
condition.

Transverse Shift in Center of Gravity (3.2.3)
The Transverse Center of Gravity is
referenced in the transverse
(athwartships) direction from the
centerline of the ship and is labeled TCG.

The equation used for a transverse shift in
the Center of Gravity is the same as was
used for the vertical shift! (With some
changes in the notation.)

weight from its original location and adding it

HYDROSTATICS
Metacenter (3.3)
A reference point for hydrostatic
calculations for small angles of roll or
pitch.


Defined as the intersection of the resultant
buoyancy forces for a range of roll or
pitch between 0 and 10 degrees.
HYDROSTATICS
Metacenter (3.3)
Beyond 10 degrees roll or pitch, the Metacenter is
no longer stationary and becomes less
accurate.


There is a different Metacenter for ship pitching in
the longitudinal direction and ships rolling in
the transverse direction. The longitudinal
Metacenter is usually 10-30 times larger.
HYDROSTATICS
Metacentric Radius (3.3.1.1)
The distance from the Metacenter to the
Center of Buoyancy is defined as the
Metacentric Radius (BM)(feet).


For small angles on inclination, the Center
of Buoyancy moves in a circular arc
about the Metacenter.

HYDROSTATICS
Metacentric Height (3.3.1.2)
The distance between the Center of Gravity (G)
and the Metacenter (M) is defined as the
Metacentric Height (GM).

If G is below M, then GM is said to be positive.
The ship does not want to capsize. This is
GOOD!

If G coincides with M, then GM is said to be
zero. A vessel would stay heeled.

If G is above M, the GM is said to be negative.
The ship will tip over. This is NOT GOOD!
HYDROSTATICS
Metacentric Radius (3.3.2.2)
To determine the values for the previous
measurements, we find:

KG = KM - GM

Where,

KM is found from the Curves of Form.

GM is found by an inclining experiment or by
lengthy, tedious calculations.
HYDROSTATICS

Calculating Angle of List (3.4)
As a weight shifts across the deck of a vessel, the
vessel inclines. How can we predict the angle
of inclination?

HYDROSTATICS
Calculating Angle of List (3.4.2)
The weight is shifted causing a shift in the Center
of Gravity.

A moment is created causing the vessel to incline.

The underwater shape of the hull changes
causing the Center of Buoyancy (B) to move
until it is in line with the Center of Gravity (G)
and the vessel is back in static equilibrium.
HYDROSTATICS
Calculating Angle of List (3.4.3)

This equation only works for small angles
because it assumes that the Metacenter does
not move.
HYDROSTATICS
Inclining Experiment (3.5)
Uses small-angle hydrostatics to find the
vertical center of gravity (KG) of a ship.

Process:

A weight is moved a transverse distance,
causing a shift in the TCG, and resulting in
measurable inclination (list).

We could measure at one angle of inclination and
determine GM, but this would have significant
experimental errors, so we measure the
inclination with different weights and different
positions.

Longitudinal Changes in the Center of Gravity

vessel having some trim.

(3.6)
A vessel is trimmed by the bow when the bow has
a deeper draft. This is indicated by a negative
trim.

A vessel is trimmed by the stern when the stern
has a deeper draft. This is indicated by a
positive trim.

What is the point which the vessel trims about?
HYDROSTATICS
Longitudinal Changes in the Center of Gravity
(3.6)
What happens when a weight is shifted forward or
aft?

The vessel goes down by the bow or stern
depending on the direction of the weight shift.

Note that the change in trim is independent of
the original location of the weight. (i.e. It only
matters whether the weight moves forward or aft)
