Applied Ship Design JEE335

Introduction

This unit exposes students to practical design issues and processes and facilitates the development of conceptual, analytical and project-planning skills required for a preliminary level of ship design with a particular emphasis on the application of skills developed in previous units to a practical design. A particular focus is placed on hull form, global and local structural design, vessel stability, seakeeping and manoeuvring.
The unit develops further the design skills acquired in Ship Design & Production and permits the application of knowledge acquired in Resistance & Propulsion and Seakeeping & Manoeuvring to a rule-governed design project centred on a moderate sized vessel. The unit also consolidates knowledge acquired in Mechanics of Solids and Analysis of Machines and Structures and demonstrates its practical application to a ship’s design.
