| Research Abstract |
The ship hull forms engaged in China- Japan trade during 14 to 19 centuries were surveyed, and a Ryukyuan tribute ship was selected for the engineering study in view of modern naval architectural technology. Detail hull shape was developed from a display model of Kyusyu National Museum. Wide variety of the ship performance such as resistance, propulsion, maneuverability and motion in waves was clarified quantitatively by means of model tests and theoretical calculations. The results have also indicated some limiting criteria of wind and wave for the voyage at East China Sea. The exchange of the study results with those of the research in humanities has shown a possibility of new aspects in the role of ships for the maritime cultural exchange between China and Japan.
