INPUT:
Prefit. For cases where an existing hull shape needs to be put into Maxsurf, Prefit will fit a B-spline surface to a table of offsets.
DESIGN:
Maxsurf. See Maxsurf page
ANALYSIS:
Hydromax. See Hydromax page
CONSTRUCTION:
Workshop. See Workshop page.
PERFORMANCE:
Seakeeper. Seakeeper is an integrated seakeeping analysis and motion prediction module, using standard strip theory to predict vertical plane vessel motions. Significant motions are calculated at the centre of gravity and at user defined positions on the hull for specified sea spectra.
Span. A sailing performance prediction program (with an integrated LPP) based on published IMS sail and hull coefficients. Span can measure a Maxsurf hull directly and produce tables of performance data or speed polars.
Hullspeed. Calculates the resistance and powering requirements of Maxsurf designs using a variety of industry standard resistance algorithms including Savitsky, Holtrop, Lahtiharju, Van Oortmeersen, Series 60, Delft and others.
OUTPUT:
Hydrolink. Provides a means for converting a Maxsurf hull into an offsets file compatible with other hydrostatics and analysis programs. Formats included are MAST, BMT Microship, SHCP, IMSA, DXF and IMS VPP.
