Course Description

Introduction, classification of ships, main dimensions, hull form coefficients, non-dimensional ratios, ship geometry, weight groups, freeboard, FWA, DWA, Numerical integration (Simpson methods), hydrostatic curves, metacenter,  center of gravity, transverse stability, stability curves, statical stability curve, IMO stability criteria, free surface effect, angle of loll, longitudinal stability, damaged stability,  structural elements,  forces acting on a ship, ship resistance, components of resistance, effective horse power (EHP)

Course Objectives

To give basic knowledge about ship form, geometry, stability to marine engineering students

Course Learning Outcomes

On successful completion of this course, students should be able to:

I. discuss hull main particulars using the right terminology
II. show knowledge about the main effects influencing the stability
III. analyse a ship hull with respect to intact and damaged stability
IV. take rules and regulations into account

V.identify and discuss the functionality of the structural elements in a ship structure

VI.critically evaluate and compare various design concepts with respect to material, geometry and structural aspects.

VII. know total hull resistance and components of resistance, factors effecting the main engine power and propulsive efficiency
