J written in terms of component masses mi and their own moments of
inertia Ji (by the parallel axis theorem) :
Jg

The yi’s give position of the centroid of each body, and Ji’s are
components, sloshing

THINGS TO CONSIDER
• Effects of:
– Weight addition/subtraction and movement
– Ballasting and loading/unloading operations
– Wind, Icing
– Damage stability
• result in an adverse movement of G or B
