To selectthebestbeamandsternpostanglefora givenlengthofafterbodyonthebasisofresistanceandmain-spraycharacteristicsrequiresmeansformakingcomparisonsofthevarioushulls.A comparisonbetweendiffefenthulls,however,isnoteasytomake,sinceno nondimen-sionalformofpresentingtestdatahasyetbeendevised‘torepresentsatisfactorilythetransitionbetweenthedisplacementandplaningstages.Evenifthisproblemweresolved,a directcomparisonwouldbe possibleonlyifonecurvewereto lieaboveanotherthroughouttheentirespeedrange.

Itmightbe imaginedthata satisfactorycriterionforcomparisonwouldbe theresistancewhenthemodelcarriesa definiteloadat adefinitespeed.However,a difficultyarisesh thismethod.If,fora givenvariationof loadwithspeed,thebeamofthehullisalteredwhilethelengthisheldconstant,thewaterresistancealsochanges.l?hisisshowninfigures48 to54,wheretithespecificresistancecharacteristicsareworkedoutfora largenumberofcasesforonetake-offspeedandoneweight.Innearlyallofthecasesitwillbe seenthatasthebeamisdecreasedthehumpresistanceticreaseswhilethe ~resistanceathighspeeddecreases.Thisisinagreementwithpreviousinvestigations(see,e.g.jreferences13and14).
