Metacentric Height GM Calculator
Metacentric Height GM: a planned Super Calculator tool. Covers waterplane geometry. Stub page: the tool, its formula and a worked example are not published yet.
Metacentric Height GM Calculator is a planned calculator in the transport section of Super Calculator, covering design ratios.
What this calculator will compute
Inputs: waterplane geometry, displacement volume and KG.
Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: GM = KB plus BM minus KG with BM = transverse inertia divided by volume.
Safety note: negative GM means the vessel lols or capsizes.
