Prof. Martin Christoph Wanner
Code = EMSHIP S4-6
Workload: 60h lecture, seminar
Number of credits: 5
Objectives:
Originating in the historical overview of the shipbuilding technologies, the procedure of manufacturing and assembly of steel structures will be discussed in detail. Modern and innovative technologies applied in integrated ship production processes will be presented.
The student achieves an advanced knowledge of modern ship manufacturing technologies. He will be able to survey the processes of steel manufacturing. Modern aspects of in the assembly of steel structures will be included. The graduates will be able to develop a clear understanding of the relevant processes and the related interactions.
Contents:
