Experimental investigation of the effect of two steps on the performance and longitudinal stability of a mono-hull high-speed craft

Transverse steps in modern high-speed craft can increase the longitudinal stability in addition to reducing frictional resistance. The porpoising instability can also be avoided by selecting the appropriate location and height of the transverse step. In the current paper, a non-step and a double-ste...
