The ship hull is the basic underlying structure of ship that makes the ship water tight or water proof. Meaning the hull prevents the water from entering the cargo, machinery, so hull are usually made of materials that have high mechanical properties, impact less and less water absorption qualities conventional hull materials used where steel wherein the boat becomes too heavy in considerations with its high strength, abrasion resistance etc. so composite materials where used which give a single structure offering solutions of strength, durability, light speedy, watertight structure in the manufacturing of boats for past 50 years. This novel paper focuses on a comparative study of composite materials previously used with further improvements in characteristics such as increased strength, ease of manufacturing, more impact resistance and increase is load tensile and compressive load bearing characteristics. The composite materials comprising of GFRP + graphite powder and GFRP + Aluminum powder was tested and analyzed experimentally for enhancement in various mechanical properties, structural and water absorption capabilities, and optimum designs further obtained. Even though experimental analysis where performed numerical analysis of these composite models is yet to done which would lead to determining more efficient structures with best materials used. © 2023 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
