An Investigation into the Use of Flume Tank Tests for Codend Models - Scale Range 1:2.0 to 1:2.7

Summary

This is a description of the Flume Tank tests on three variants of a model codend to see how the tank could be used to carry out preliminary assessments of different codends. This would be beneficial to the selectivity programme and could reduce expensive time consuming sea trials. This report has been produced from a scanned original and may therefore contain some formatting and other inaccuracies. In cases where this affects the technical content, a paper copy of the original report can still be obtained from Seafish.
