  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. Hull (watercraft) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hull_(watercraft)

    Volume (V or ∇) is the volume of water displaced by the hull. The volume of a ship's hull below the waterline (solid), divided by the volume of a rectangular solid (lines) of the same length, height and width, determine a ship's block coefficient. Coefficients [5] help compare hull forms as well:

  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 ...

  5. FORAN System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FORAN_System

    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.

  6. Compartment (ship) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compartment_(ship)

    The first part of the code represents a numbered deck, the second part of the code is a hull support frame numbered sequentially from the bow, the third part of the code is a number representing compartment position with respect to the ship's centerline, and the fourth part of the code is alphabetic representing the use of that compartment.

  7. Longitudinal framing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longitudinal_framing

    Longitudinal framing (also called the Isherwood system after British naval architect Sir Joseph Isherwood, who patented it in 1906) is a method of ship construction in which large, widely spaced transverse frames are used in conjunction with light, closely spaced longitudinal members. This method, Isherwood felt, lent a ship much greater ...

  8. Ship stability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ship_stability

    Ship stability is an area of naval architecture and ship design that deals with how a ship behaves at sea, both in still water and in waves, whether intact or damaged. Stability calculations focus on centers of gravity , centers of buoyancy , the metacenters of vessels, and on how these interact.

  9. Draft (hull) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft_(hull)

    A ship's draft/draught is the "depth of the vessel below the waterline measured vertically to the lowest part of the hull, propellers, or other reference point". [1] That is, the draft or draught is the maximum depth of any part of the vessel, including appendages such as rudders, propellers and drop keels if deployed.
