This was the first commercial ship model testing tank built in the world and it retains many original features today: a water tank as long as a football pitch, clay moulding beds for casting wax model ship hulls and the original Victorian machinery used for shaping models.

Design work, also called naval architecture, may be conducted using a ship model basin.

Tests are carried out in a ship model basin or "towing tank".

Often, a tunnel will be co-located with other experimental facilities at a Ship model basin.

Some of the most significant ship model basins are:

Some ship model basins have further facilities such as a maneuvering and seakeeping basin and an ice tank.

Ship model basins manufacture their ship models from wood or paraffin with a computerized milling machine.

Alexey Krylov, then chief of the Navy's ship model basin, performed towed scale model test and came to the same conclusion.

Many un-refrigerated ship model basins use ice simulants such as paraffin wax, plaster, and mixtures of foam or plastic beads.

Inspired by Froude's successful work, shipbuilding company William Denny and Brothers completed the world's first commercial example of a ship model basin in 1883.

Performance data gained from testing models towed in a long water tank (referred to in yacht design as Ship model basin) can suggest optimal combinations of parameters.

It has been tested in the ice channel of the Hamburg Ship Model Basin (HSVA).

What differentiates an ice tank from other ship model basins is that an ice tank has purpose built provisions into its structure for handling such material conveniently.

The design was selected by Cole after testing 22 hull shapes and 11 winged keel variations at the Netherlands Ship Model Basin during 1985.

• Hamburg Ship Model Basin (HSVA)

A 10-metre model of the ship, designed by German firm Hamburg Ship Model Basin, will take to the water next month as part of the testing process.

An ice tank is a ship model basin whose purpose is to provide a physical modeling environment for the interaction of ship, structures, or sea floor with both ice and water.

Over 100 models of the hull were tested in a ship model basin to find the best hull form and two one-tenth-scale launches were built at Sevastopol to test the hull's maneuverability.

His experiments were later vindicated in full-scale trials conducted by the Admiralty and as a result the first Ship model basin was built, at public expense, at his home in Torquay.

However, the advent of calculus-based methods of determining stability, particularly Pierre Bouguer's introduction of the concept of the metacenter in the 1740'S ship model basin allows much more complex analysis.

Also the lines design of some of the ships is carried out by the specialists of the ship model basin, either from the beginning or by optimizing the initial design obtained from the shipyard.

The Maritime Research Institute Netherlands (MARIN) was founded in 1932 as the Dutch Ship Model Basin (NSMB).

Popov sent the drawings to the Dutch naval architect Bruno Tideman, who ran a series of tests of a paraffin wax model in a ship model basin and concluded that the design was feasible.

A ship model basin company is an engineering firm that acts as a contractor to the relevant shipyards, and provides hydrodynamic model tests and numerical calculations to support the design and development of ships and offshore structures.

"The model testing by the Hamburg Ship Model Basin (HSVA), including resistance and open water tests, is an important part of the process in the Titanic II project," Mr Palmer said.
