This case study is about calculating the barehull resistance of a day-cruise ship in the cloud with a standard hull form used as a benchmark for computational fluid dynamics in the marine industry.  Hull form parameters and experimental results are available and owned by CCTO.  The purpose of this project was to become familiar with the mechanics of running a NUMECA FINE/Marine simulation in an UberCloud container and to assess the performance of the cloud compared to resources currently used by the end-user.  The benchmark was analyzed on local hardware, on virtual instances in the cloud, and on the bare-metal cloud solution offered by CPU 24/7 and UberCloud.
