Maxsurf Resistance module estimates the resistance and power requirements for any Maxsurf design using industry standard prediction techniques. Calculation methods covers; Savitsky, Lahtiharju and Blount & Fox for planing vessels, Holtrop and Compton for fast displacement hulls, Fung and Series 60 for ships, van Oortmerssen for full form hulls and Delft systematic yacht series for sailing yachts.

Maxsurf Stability module provides graphical and interactive calculation of intact and damaged stability and strength for all types of Maxsurf  designs.

Maxsurf Structure module provides initial definition of structural parts including hull plates, stringers, transverse frames, decks, and longitudinal structure for all types of Maxsurf designs.

Maxsurf VPP utility provides sailing performance analysis for yachts in a variety of sailing conditions and produces performance polar curves to show predicted speeds.

Mchl is a software for calculating the wave making resistance considering an effect of the gradient of hull form in the depth direction based on linear approximation, which is made by modifying the original Michell’s thin ship formulation and by using Havelock’s Green function.

MeshSim is component software for automatically generating unstructured meshes directly from CAD models. It automatically generates both surface and volume meshes starting from a non-manifold CAD model. Functionalities for special meshing situations are offered through the MeshSim Advanced module.

In 1884 the founder of Mitsubishi took a lease of Government-owned Nagasaki Shipyard. This shipbuilding business was later turned into Mitsubishi Shipbuilding Co. Ltd. and was again launched as Mitsubishi Heavy-Industries, Ltd. (MHI) in 1934.

Michlet is a computer workbench that can be used for investigations into some aspects of ship hydrodynamics. Although it is not a ship design program, Michlet can be used for preliminary design work such as estimating the resistance, wave elevation patterns and bottom pressure signatures of monohulls, multihulls and submarines.

Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) is a private research university founded in 1861.

Monda is an open source font with extended character support. Used and embedded in this website.

MSDEV is the flat plate expansion of developable surfaces for MultiSurf.

Multiload is a software system to carry out the complex ship loading calculations.

MultiSurf is a system for parametric design of 3D geometric objects, particularly complex objects involving freeform curves and surfaces. MultiSurf updates the entire model when you change underlying objects. It is not limited with Nurbs and 29 surface types available.
