Submerged Cylinder Model Applet


Buoyancy Information for a Simple, Partially-submerged, Cylinder




1) Fill in the dimensions for the partially-submerged cylinder.

2) Fill in the submerged condition (rotation and unrotated draft)

3) Then press the button to plot the cylinder and find the submerged geometry and buoyancy information.
