Methods of determining power necessary to propel ship at given speed; subdividing total resistance; accurate determination of wetted surface is essential in estimating largest element in vessel's resistance; set of curves shown are based on lines of large number of merchant vessels, exact wetted surface of which was calculated out by usual process of girths, waterline lengths, etc.; derivation of curves; advantages in use of these curves.
