Abstract
This is a study to determine the practicability of predicting a ship's behaviour at sea among waves from the statical stability curve and a rolling experiment on a model. The use of a mechanical integrator reduces the time to an amount to make such studies practical. Further study is required but the authors have pointed the way.
