Phase I of the development of the Next Generation Cargo Liner addressed the commercial trade forecasts and the development of custom ship designs for seven participating owners. Phase II was to prepare a preliminary design of a standard ship which would satisfy a composite of the various owners' requirements. In attempting this it became clear that additional research and development is needed. Volume II addresses the research and development requirements necessary to support a next generation cargo liner. Topics included Hull Form, Powering, Structure, Outfitting, Cargo Handling, Cargo Hold Access, Machinery, Electrical and Electronics, Operation, and Safety.
