I looked at some of the technical analysis on the ark's feasibility.
As expect6ed Christians will cite analysis that supports the belief.
Generally, dimensionally the ark would have been stable meaningresistant to capsizing, tipping over.
But there are basic structural issues.
A ship of ta length would be subject ti torque, twisting. In other tan calm still waters one end of the ship can end up at different height, bending the ship.
The sheer weight of the structure and distribution of internal forces could cause structural failure.
Without iron to brace the structure not very likely to work.
Modern steel hulled ships have broken in two.
AI Overview
Yes, several 20th-century steel-hulled ships have broken in two, often driven by a combination of severe wave stress, cold temperatures, and a metallurgical issue known as brittle fracture.
AI Overview
In the 19th century, large wooden ships typically ranged from 150 to 300 feet (45 to 91 meters) in length. While smaller merchant vessels and coastal craft were much shorter, 300 feet served as the practical structural limit for ocean-going wooden hulls. Beyond this length, wood lacks the tensile strength to withstand ocean waves, causing the hull to bend and leak severely
AI Overview
According to the biblical account, Noah's Ark was 300 cubits long, which translates in modern measurements to between 450 and 510 feet (about 137 to 155 meters) depending on the ancient cubit size used
Plus the added weight of two of every animal. Drinking water for a year would be heavy.
