All parameters given for a small sheltered vessel
Berthing Energy Calc
Calculates characteristic and design berthing energy for a vessel from displacement, approach velocity, hydrodynamic and berth coefficients, and an explicit safety factor. The template applies the kinetic energy relationship E = 0.5 M V^2 and multiplies by the provided marine design coefficients.
