Examples of typical final projects that students can perform under the scientific supervision of ULiège in the field of "Ship Design and Ship Structure” :
-
Virtual Simulation of the production of a shipyard shop (panel line, assembling, dry dock, etc.
-
Optimisation of the structure (scantling) of a ship (LNG, ROPAX, FPSO, Tanker, Inland Navigation Vessel, Barge, etc) using the least cost optimisation LBR5 software.
-
Ultimate strength of stiffened panels (using non linear FEM).
-
Ultimate bending moment of hull girder – impacts of residual stresses, initial imperfections.
Fatigue assessment of a specific part of a ship, using FEM. -
Development of a new module of the least cost optimisation LBR5 software.
Cost assessment of ship production. -
Ship production planning – optimisation.
Optimisation of the surface allocation of a shipyard. -
Complete design of ships from the basic design up to detailed design.
-
Comparison of numerical and experimental ship hull hydrodynamics.
Design of ecological ships (optimisation of hull form, structure).
