Handling of Knuckled Panels

The Hull application distinguishes basically between two different types of plate structures, the planar structures in the internal of the ship and the curved structures in the shell.

The knuckled parts in the internal structure form a category of their own in between the planar parts and the arbitrarily curved parts. However, the system treats them as a variant of planar plate parts using basically the same tools as for the rest of the internal structure.
