  2. Naval architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naval_architecture

    The complete structure of the ship is designed with panels shaped in a rectangular form consisting of steel plating supported on four edges. Combined in a large surface area the Grillages create the hull of the ship, deck, and bulkheads while still providing mutual support of the frames. Though the structure of the ship is sturdy enough to hold ...

  3. Strength of ships - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_of_ships

    The secondary hull loads, bending, and strength are those loads that happen to the skin structure of the ship (sides, bottom, deck) between major lengthwise subdivisions or bulkheads. For these loads, we are interested in how this shorter section behaves as an integrated beam, under the local forces of displaced water pushing back on the hull ...

  4. Double hull - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_hull

    Single hull, Double bottom, and Double hull ship cross sections. Green lines are watertight; black structure is not watertight. A double hull is a ship hull design and construction method where the bottom and sides of the ship have two complete layers of watertight hull surface: one outer layer forming the normal hull of the ship, and a second inner hull which is some distance inboard ...

    Marine engineers reviewing ship plans. Marine engineering is the engineering of boats, ships, submarines, and any other marine vessel.Here it is also taken to include the engineering of other ocean systems and structures – referred to in certain academic and professional circles as "ocean engineering".

  6. Multihull - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multihull

    The design concept comprises a narrow, long hull that cuts through waves. The outriggers then provide the stability that such a narrow hull needs. While the aft sponsons act as trimaran sponsons do, the front sponsons do not touch the water normally; only if the ship rolls to one side do they provide added buoyancy to correct the roll.

  7. Simpson's rules (ship stability) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simpson's_rules_(ship...

    Simpson's rules are a set of rules used in ship stability and naval architecture, to calculate the areas and volumes of irregular figures. [1] This is an application of Simpson's rule for finding the values of an integral, here interpreted as the area under a curve. Simpson's First Rule

    FORAN system logo. The FORAN system [1] is an integrated CAD/CAM/CAE system developed by SENER for the design and production of practically any naval ship and offshore unit. It is a multidisciplinary and integrated system that can be used in all the ship design and production phases and disciplines.
