Model Requirements for the Savitsky Analysis

Print this Topic Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

It is critical to satisfy various requirements for the model when running the Planing Hull Savitsky Prediction. These are:

 

-MUST ONLY represent the planing surface up to the chine; a hull surface that includes the topsides can be split at the chine by selecting the surface, then selecting the Surface menu > Surface Edit Tools > Split at Isocurve, finally selecting the curve representing the chine and press Enter

 

-MUST ONLY represent half of the hull

 

-MUST have a transverse coordinate of 0 on the centerline

 

-MUST have a surface normal direction pointing outward into the water.  The surface normal direction can be verified by selecting the surface, then selecting Direction from the Rhino Analyze menu.
