The objective of this study is to investigate the hydrostatic and damaged stability of a tumblehome hull form by comparing the tumblehome form with one of similar displacement and geometric properties in a wallsided hull form. The data for the comparison is generated by modeling the hull forms in a computer modeling program designed by Creative Systems Incorporated titled General Hydrostatics. The objective was achieved by conducting research and computer modeling in 3 parts. (1) Model Development, (2) Intact stability analysis and (3) Damaged stability analysis. This thesis demonstrates both the intact stability and damaged stability problems that will be encountered if the tumblehome hull design is used on a modern warship, as well as the benefits from using an innovative and modern tumblehome hull design.
