摘要

This paper presents a novel approach between naval architecture and traditional shipbuilding. It is an innovative solution that bridges the two disciplines, offering a new perspective to the traditional shipbuilding industry. Specifically, the basic ship design parameters of a traditional yacht are presented. This is the case of a boat with “karavoskaro” bow and “varkalas” stern type, respectively. Initially, the lines plan of the traditional vessel was mapped in a 3D ship-design software, followed by the calculation of the basic hydrostatic and hydrodynamic quantities. Then, a scale 3D model was designed, and a physical prototype of the hull was constructed using 3D printing technology. The aim of this work is to elucidate a methodology for integrating traditional shipbuilding expertise with modern naval architecture science and technology. This approach is intended to facilitate the systematic documentation of this traditional art, which has evolved and survived through the centuries, but nowadays it is in danger of being lost.
