The dynamic pressures on the bottom of high speed small crafts are studied. Using the dynamic load factor the dynamic pressure can be replaced by equivalent static pressure. Assuming that (1) the system is undamped with a single degree of freedom and (2) the load is applied triangularly, we obtained the max, value of the dynamic load factor of 1.455. We believe that this method could provide a guide to the designer who has no data on the craft in the preliminary structural design stage.
