Systematic probabilistic design methodology for simultaneously optimizing the ship hull–propeller system

The proposed design methodology represents a new approach to optimize the propeller–hull system simultaneously. In this paper, two objective functions are considered, the first objective function is Lifetime Fuel Consumption (LFC) and the other one is cost function including thrust, torque, open wat...
