[barehull]

Hello,

I'm studying lately the bench-mark hulls model cases, presented at Tokyo 2015.

Those in this field knows how distorted is the KCS hull, mainly in the aft part.

I've read all kind of articles and I can say it's quite important from the solver point of view, as the quality of the grid adjacent to the wall, the buffer layer, will be affected so as the expense of CPU will rise.

I should make a test scenario.

Ideally a hull form should be comprised of a minimum number of surface patches.

Would you care to shred some more light about this? Except the text book?

Many thanks

PS: Is it possible with Rhino Grasshopper and or Kangaroo to take one step further - automatic, semi-automatic fairing?
