Advanced Naval Architecture and Ship Construction JNE319

Introduction

Advanced Naval Architecture & Ship Construction provides students of marine engineering with an applied knowledge of both fundamental and detailed concepts of a vessel’s hydrostatics, resistance and structure and their associated practical implications. The unit is essential to an adequate knowledge within any marine engineering degree. The unit provides the naval architectural context within which certain onboard operations are conducted and explains the reasons underpinning the vessel’s response and performance. Hence the unit forms one foundation for concurrent and subsequent studies within the course. This unit meet the requirements for knowledge, understanding and proficiency set out by the Maritime Training Package TDM60207, the STCW 2010 (Manila Amendments) and Table A-III/1 and AIII/2 of the STCW code.

Note

Please check that your computer meets the minimum System Requirements if you are attending via Distance/Off-Campus.

Units are offered in attending mode unless otherwise indicated (that is attendance is required at the campus identified). A unit identified as offered by distance, that is there is no requirement for attendance, is identified with a nominal enrolment campus. A unit offered to both attending students and by distance from the same campus is identified as having both modes of study.

Learning Outcomes

  • Predict and interpret a vessel’s response to any proposed loading or damaged condition from lever and moment curves and other pertinent data.
  • Contribute meaningfully to the undertaking of an inclining experiment and dry-docking operation according to industry best practice.
  • Demonstrate an understanding of fundamental hull design and the prediction of a vessel’s resistance and powering requirements.
  • Demonstrate an understanding of the principles of a rudder’s action and possess the ability to predict the associated forces, torque and stresses incurred.
  • Demonstrate an understanding of practical issues with respect to the design, selection or modification of a vessel’s structure and/or structural component.
