StabCad Introduction
StabCad has a ship stability package providing an
interface to model the hull, simulate various (intact
and damaged) conditions of floatation on it.
1. *Hydrostatic Curves
2. *Cross Curves of Stability and Curve of Static
Stability
3. Floodable length, permissible length & Factor of
subdivision
4. Many more
Learn how to use StabCad
1. Read help Manual
2. Practicing
