Code = EMSHIP S4-8 (Semester S4)
Workload: 30h lectures and 45h exercises
Number of credits: 5
Objectives:
The second objective is to give advanced production methods for advanced ship structural design concepts including new materials and integrate them in the design procedure.
Contents:
a) Advanced ship structural design
- Main characteristics and design objectives of various ship types (passenger ships, bulk-carrier, containership, chemical tanker, liquified gas tanker, ro-ro, ropax, etc.),
- Use of new materials in the construction of specific ship types (metallic and non metallic materials, sandwich and core structures),
- Structural arrangement of these specific ship types,
- Loads and strength of these specific ship types (sea load, cargo load, local and global strength),
- Structural details of these specific ship types (bottom and side framing, shell and decks, bulkheads and deep tanks, fore and arrangements, aft and arrangements),
- IMO conventions and classification societies rules requirements of these specific ship types.
b) Methods of production and technology of specific ship types
- Technology of building of specific ship types,
- Technology of building ships supporting offshore industry,
- Technology of building offshore floating steel and concrete structures (rigs, caissons, pontoons, windmill towers) ,
- Application and manufacturing technology using innovative sandwich structures to ship hull,
- Non-conventional methods of ship launching,
- Underwater technology - fabrication and application of manned and unmanned vehicles.
