- Kalyan Chatterjea
The tutorial shows how a ship's waterplane area and its centroid from midships are calculated using Simpson's First Rule.
You need to calculate the distance of centroid from the Aft Perpendicular. Hint: Need to change all the lever values (start from Aft and go all the way to the forward) Use this worksheet as a template.
