  • zh造船学中的技术术语,指船舶正浮时浮心垂线与横倾后浮心垂线的交点;该点相对重心的位置高度决定船舶的初稳性。

A technical term in shipbuilding referring to the point of intersection between two vertical lines: one through the center of buoyancy of a hull in equilibrium and another through the center of buoyancy when the hull is inclined; its height above the center of gravity indicates the ship's stability.

  1. Stability point in ship designC1formalbritishtechnical

    The point of intersection between two vertical lines through the centre of buoyancy when a ship is at equilibrium and when it is tilted; its height above the centre of gravity indicates the vessel's stability.

    • Naval architects calculate the metacentre to ensure a ship doesn't capsize.
    • The distance between the centre of gravity and the metacentre determines the righting moment.
    • A vessel with a low metacentre will roll more slowly and be less stable.
