[[Hydrostatics]] concerns the conditions to which the vessel is subjected while at rest in water and to its ability to remain afloat. This involves computing [[buoyancy]], [[Displacement (ship)|displacement]], and other hydrostatic properties such as [[Sailing ballast|trim]] (the measure of the longitudinal inclination of the vessel) and [[Ship stability|stability]] (the ability of a vessel to restore itself to an upright position after being inclined by wind, sea, or loading conditions).<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.usna.edu/NAOE/academics/en342.php|title=EN342|website=www.usna.edu}}</ref>
