Application of Genetic Algorithm to the Position Optimization of the Outriggers for Trimaran

In multi-hulls ship development the position optimization of the outriggers for Trimaran has to be taken into account. This problem may be solved by multi-objects nonlinear program. In this paper, The Rankine Source method based on the potential flow theory is used to predict the wave-making resista...
