摘要

This article traces the contributions of Prof. E.O. Tuck to the field of mathematical ship-squat prediction. The review expands on Tuck's own review of his early work (Ann. Rev. Fluid Mech. 10:33, 1978) and describes the use of his formulae in modern squat-prediction methods. A method for calculating Tuck's sinkage and trim coefficients using easily obtainable ship parameters is also described.
