ParticipantI am using Solidworks and DelftShipPro (Just started).
How does one approach MultiHull (Trimaran) simulation in Delft.
I can do two seperate hulls Main and Ama simulate them individually but it seems like a very roundabout way to do it.
Ultimately one would want to heel the design and establish levels CG CB and draft at various heel angles. -

KeymasterStart modelling your outrigger. This can either be symmetrical or asymmetrical.
Then translate it off the centerline and model the middle hull as a conventional hull on the centerplane. Due to the symmetry both the outrigger and the center (half) hull will be mirrored by Delftship to get your complete boat. -

ParticipantThanks, done it.
Delftship is fantastic easy to use. I move between Solidworks and Delftship with ease. The combination is awesome. Learning curve almost nil.Then how do I get hydrostatics at different heel angles?
DO I rotate my whole model and redo reports?It would have been nice if I could get a report at which trim the Tri would settle for different heel angles.
Would the inclined hydrostatics module do that for me?
