The following are some of the more salient new features of Autohydro 5.2. Torsion moments are calculated for all ship loading conditions. Moments of inertia are calculated for tank contents and can be user-defined for lightship and added weights. Vessel total moments of inertia (about all three axes), radii of gyration (about all three axes), and rolling and pitching periods can also be calculated. There is a new draft comparison routine, allowing the user to easily calculate constant weight. The user can now input either distributed or point-load weights in user-defined groups. Lastly, the user can view a body-section at any specified longitudinal location.

Autohydro 5.2 operates in Windows '95, '98 and Windows 2000! For NT users, please use service pack 6a.
