Abstract

This refer shows the method of realisation of comparing researches provided on one - and multihull crafts which transport the spatial cargo. The results determine a new field of application of examined crafts in energetic effectiveness aspect The main assumption in realisation of above subject matter which compares these two types of ships : there is an optimum number of application of one - and multihull crafts determined by geometry of waterways and kind of cargo. The inland waterways impose more geometrical restriction than seaways These restriction are genereted not only by depth and width of the waterroute but also by radius of curves, space under bridges, overall dimensions of hydrotechmcal constructions (such as tide-gates, lifts) and Sometimes by velocity of the river midstream. Therefore
