Let x = X est
(s2 + 2ns + n2) est = 0 OR s2 + 2ns + n2 = 0
s = [-2n +/- sqrt(42n2 – 4n2)] / 2

THINGS TO CONSIDER
• Effects of:
– Weight addition/subtraction and movement
– Ballasting and loading/unloading operations
– Wind, Icing
– Damage stability
• result in an adverse movement of G or B
• sea-keeping characteristics will change
• compensating for flooding (ballast/completely flood a
compartment)
• maneuvering for seas/wind
