The Naval Architect provides in-depth information on all aspects of vessel design, construction and engineering. Practical applications of latest technology and case studies are accompanied by analysis and foresights. Published every two months, the magazine covers everything from superyachts and short-hop ferries to tankers and heavy-lift vessels; from battery pack installations and sail-assisted solutions to LNG tank retrofits; and from offshore safety to warship resilience.
Stepped hulls continue to offer exceptional high-speed performance, yet their complex hydrodynamics have challenged designers for decades. Combining mathematical modelling, numerical simulation and experimental testing, new predictive tools provide deeper insight into step design and performance in waves, enabling faster, more reliable development of next-generation high-performance marine craft.
