MIT Ship Design Spiral, In-Silico

Five-discipline design spiral · ZeroShip · Hull 20098 proving article · github.com/Zer0pa/ZeroShip

Global shipping carries roughly 80% of world trade and still burns the dirtiest fuel afloat. ZeroShip is the in-silico form of the MIT design spiral — hydrodynamics, propulsion, structure, arrangement, stability — running on one vessel concept until every discipline agrees on the same ship. Hull 20098, a 10,955-tonne hydrogen-electric freighter at 14.36 MW installed power and 23 knots service speed, is the first public proving article. The page shows what the spiral converged on, and what it has not yet been asked to answer.

ZeroShip approved scientific square mechanics diagram showing in-silico design-spiral mechanics.
Scope: in-silico design spiral around Hull 20098. V_01-V_04 pass, with certification and full design closure outside this claim.
01 · THE GAP READING IN SEQUENCE

Five disciplines have always read the hull. Never simultaneously. Never from the same vessel concept.

02 · MARKETS ADJACENT FORECASTS
Maritime decarbonization — '30 $52.7B
Hydrogen generation — '30 $316.5B
Fuel-cell market — '30 $17.9B
Marine engineering software — '30 $9.8B
Green shipping tech — '31 $79.4B
Adjacent transition forecasts. ZeroShip sits beneath them as the design workspace where every discipline reads the same hydrogen-electric ship.
03 · VALUE OF MARKET
$79.4B
Green shipping '31 forecast; an integrated five-discipline design workspace beneath it remains largely unpriced.
04 · INSIGHT

Iterate the spiral enough, the disagreements stop — that is the ship.

05.1 · CURRENT TECH READING IN SEQUENCE

Ship design still runs each discipline in turn — hydrodynamics, then propulsion, then structure, then stability. By the time they all weigh in, the first assumptions are already stale and every team has answered a slightly different ship.

05.2 · OUR TECH ONE LOOP, FIVE DISCIPLINES

ZeroShip runs all five through the same loop — hydrodynamics, propulsion, structure, arrangement, stability — each pass informing the next until the design converges on one ship. Hull 20098 sits in the loop today at 10,955 tonnes, 14.36 MW installed power, and 23 knots service speed; the page also names where the spiral has not yet been run.

08 · THE SPIRAL'S SCOPE WHAT THE SURFACE SHOWS

The spiral governs what is public — and what is not.

08.1 · WHAT THE SPIRAL SHOWS PUBLICLY ARCHITECTURE AND BOUNDARY

ZeroShip is the in-silico form of the MIT design spiral: five disciplines — hydrodynamics, propulsion, structure, arrangement, stability — cycling through the same vessel concept, each pass informing the next. The public page describes how the platform is organised, where Hull 20098 currently stands, and what the spiral is not yet claiming. Implementation source, detailed geometry, flow-analysis archives, OEM and partner data, and live engine operation stay private. A reviewer reads the shape of the spiral and a checked list of what is held back — not the working files behind it.

08.2 · THE FIDELITY GAP
Honest Blocker ·

No public implementation code, no package manifest, no PyPI project, no wheel, no command-line tool, no hosted service, no private geometry, no flow-analysis archives, no OEM data, no partner data, no vessel-status promotion, and no authorized restart of the live engine. Copy cannot close this boundary; named public evidence must.

FIVE DISCIPLINES, ONE SHIP.

09.1 · THE AMBITION

The aim is a shared design workspace where hydrodynamics, propulsion, structure, arrangement, and stability pass through one in-silico spiral until a hydrogen-electric vessel coheres. Hull 20098 is the proving article. What it lets a yard, a class society, or a financier do depends on the public evidence still being built.

09.2 · WHAT WORKS NOW

Working now: published platform architecture, current status, exclusion boundary, and four public-boundary checks passed.

09.3 · WHAT'S STILL OPEN

Still open: implementation source, hosted service, private geometry and flow archives, and authorized restart of the live engine.

09.4 · DESIGN REVIEW · NEAR-TERM (12–24 MO)
Concepts fail before the cheque clears
A naval architect can kill the wrong hull before procurement opens a hydrogen-vessel line item. When the discipline that would break the design breaks it in the spiral, the shipyard never quotes steel for a concept that could not survive its own physics.
09.5 · PROCUREMENT · NEAR-TERM (12–24 MO)
One ship five disciplines can argue about
A maritime procurement lead stops chasing five separate consultant reports that read five different versions of the same vessel. Hydrodynamics, propulsion, structure, arrangement, and stability all answer from the same hull, so tradeoffs become one decision instead of five.
09.6 · CLASS AND COMPLIANCE · MID-TERM (24–48 MO)
Class society reads design and compliance together
A classification-society reviewer receives a vessel concept whose compliance evidence lives inside the design history, not stapled to it afterward. The first authority conversation about a hydrogen-electric freighter starts from a shared record of what was tested and what was excluded.
09.7 · TRANSITION ECONOMICS · MID-TERM (24–48 MO)
Hydrogen vessel claims arrive with cost receipts
A decarbonization-fund officer can ask whether a hydrogen-electric freighter pencils out and get an answer from the same loop that sized its propulsion. Capital allocators stop choosing between physics credibility and economic credibility — the spiral carries both.
09.8 · MARITIME R&D · PARADIGM (48 MO+)
A ship design becomes a regulated dossier
Early vessel R&D stops looking like marketing renderings and starts looking like a retained evidence object that regulators, insurers, financiers, and yards can interrogate years apart. The unit of trust in maritime transition shifts from the slide deck to the design dossier itself.
