Research and analysis of hull form of small fishing vessels in Southeast Asia

摘要

There are many fishing vessels in Southeast Asia (SEA), and fish products produced by SEA countries support people in this area. Japanese-imported fishery products from SEA countries, and some Japanese fishing vessels, share fishing grounds. Japanese government has supported many projects to maintain sustainable fisheries in SEA. These projects are implemented by the Southeast Asia Fisheries Development Center (SEAFDEC). SEAFDEC is an international organization in the region. To recognize fishing vessel hydrostatics, performance, and vessels catch capacity in SEA countries, we measured the vessel dimensions and hull form of fishing vessels. In this paper, we introduce the features of fishing vessels in SEA, a measurement method uses a 3D stereo camera to capture the hull form, an analysis of hydrostatics (including block coefficient (Cb) that is used to calculate gross tonnage), and a speed power curve.
