Intro
Fall Pipe Ships combine the robustness of a working vessel with the precision of a surgeon as they drop rocks on exactly the right place. This combination of requirements demands a special approach to the hydrodynamic design and validation of such a vessel. Royal Boskalis Westminster found that MARIN had the diverse areas of expertise needed to obtain the best results.
