The vanishing angle is a term used in the context of ship stability and refers to the maximum angle of heel (tilt) at which a ship can right itself. Beyond this angle, the ship will capsize if it heels further. Understanding the vanishing angle is crucial for:

Ensuring the safety and stability of the vessel.
Designing ships that can withstand adverse weather conditions and other external forces.
It is a key factor in naval architecture and the assessment of ship stability.
