ABSTRACT:
A ship hull design has circular arc frame lines of equal radius at stations 11-16 symmetrical fore and aft from a similar frame line at a central station 10, and a circular arc keel line 17 of larger radius. The submerged hull configuration is thus similar to a segment of a toroid having a circular cross-section, to minimize rolling and pitching movements in a seaway and reduce hull resistance.
