Ever wondered how massive aircraft carriers stay afloat and stable despite their top-heavy design? In this video, we delve into the fascinating engineering behind the stability of the USS Gerald R. Ford. Learn about Archimedes' Force, buoyancy, and how density plays a crucial role. From the shifting center of buoyancy to the importance of the metacenter, discover the intricate balance that keeps these giants from toppling. We also explore real-world stability tests, including shock trials and high-speed maneuvers, and discuss the tragic Sewol ferry disaster to highlight the importance of proper design and cargo management. 🛳️⚙️ 🔗 Like, and share this video with fellow engineering enthusiasts! #AircraftCarrier #NavalEngineering #USSgeraldRFord #Buoyancy #ShipStability #ArchimedesForce #MaritimeSafety #USSGeraldRFord #AircraftCarrier #NavalEngineering #MilitaryTechnology #SeaPower #NavalStability #USNavy #AircraftCarrierStability #EngineeringMarvel #Milit
