Visualization and Prediction of Two-Dimensional Motion of Towed Objects in Ship Operations

Developed a visualizable model predicting two-dimensional motion of towed objects in ship operations, focusing on maneuvers. Utilized Multi-Body Dynamics, Runge-Kutta, and GUI in Python. Achieved recognition for technical excellence in the Mechanical Engineering Department, showcasing results with animations and impact analysis on mass and drag coefficient variations. The project enhances military hydrodynamics understanding and contributes to marine technology.
