In this study, we developed a new systematic approach to assess the influence of geometric parameter change on the horizontal and vertical stability indices. To do this, three phases of sensitivity analyses were carried out. First, typical geometric parameters were defined and their effects on hydrodynamic coefficients were assessed by the Sensitivity Analysis (SA) of the indirect method. Second, the effects of hydrodynamic coefficients on the stability indices were calculated. Finally, the sensitivities of geometric parameters on the stability indices were obtained by merging the outputs of two phases using chain rule. The developed approach cau contribute to a submarine designer to determine geometric parameters satisfying pre-requirements about stability systematically
