In the present study hydrodynamic analysis of morphological adaptations in sailfish having v-shaped protrusions on its skin has been done. The paper shall discuss a hull design integrated with v-shaped protrusions, inspired from sailfish. A quantitative analysis will be discussed with simulation proofs worked on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software. CFD results for total hydrodynamic resistance with detailed pressure distribution, velocity distribution, boundary layer separation are presented. The final result is an optimized hull form which shows interesting characteristics, as its overall resistance has de-creased in respect to a conventional hull. 000011108 542__ $$aCC-BY-4.0 000011108 7001_ $$aBorah, S$$uIndian Maritime University 000011108 773__ $$tConference Proceedings of ICMET 000011108 773__ $$jICMET 2019 000011108 8564_ $$981e7edf3-b8e5-47fd-942f-05e55dfd056a$$s3941555$$uhttps://library.imarest.org/record/11108/files/Paper%2016%20-%20Modification%20of%20hull%20design%20inspired%20by%20sailfish%20.pdf
