About this document

Ship Stability Conditions Explained by noczvivi is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document discusses the three conditions of stability for ships: stable, neutral, and unstable. [1] A stable ship will return to an upright position after being inclined to a small angle, as its metacentre (M) is above the center of gravity (G). [2] A neutral ship will come to rest at any small angle of inclination, as M and G are at the same height. [3] An unstable ship will continue to heel further as M is below G, but may come to rest at a large angle of loll if the center of buoyancy (B) moves outbo
