  2. Strength of ships - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_of_ships

    The strength of ships is a topic of key interest to naval architects and shipbuilders. Ships which are built too strong are heavy, slow, and cost extra money to build and operate since they weigh more, whilst ships which are built too weakly suffer from minor hull damage and in some extreme cases catastrophic failure and sinking.

  3. Aluminaut - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminaut

    In September 1964, Time magazine reported on the vehicle's unique specifications, stating that its 51-foot (16 m) hull consists of 11 forged cylinders. Aluminum's strength-to-weight ratio exceeds that of steel, so Aluminaut 's 6.5-inch-thick (170 mm) shell could withstand pressures of 7,500 pounds per square inch (52 MPa) at the sub's 17,000 ft ...

  4. Hull (watercraft) - Wikipedia

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

    A hull is the watertight body of a ship, boat, submarine, or flying boat. The hull may open at the top (such as a dinghy), or it may be fully or partially covered with a deck. Atop the deck may be a deckhouse and other superstructures, such as a funnel, derrick, or mast. The line where the hull meets the water surface is called the waterline.

  5. Naden Boats - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naden_Boats

    Naden Boats is a line of aluminum fishing boats manufactured in Canada by Temagami Boat Manufacturing Inc. Six models are offered, ranging from 11’11" to 16’ in overall length. They are noted for their expanded polystyrene flotation, rigid construction, and semi-V planing hull with five keels.

  6. Boat building - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boat_building

    As the hull thickness is typically 2.5 to 3 cms, ferrocement is unsuitable for boats less than about 15 metres LOA as there is a weight penalty; above that length there is no penalty. Properly plastered ferrocement boats have smooth hulls with fine lines, and amateur builders are advised to use professional plasterers to produce a smooth finish.

  7. Submarine hull - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Submarine_hull

    U-995, a U-Boat of WWII, showing the typical combination of ship-like non-watertight outer hull with bulky strong hull below. A submarine hull has two major components, the light hull and the pressure hull. The light hull (casing in British usage) of a submarine is the outer non-watertight hull which provides a hydrodynamically efficient shape ...

  8. Tumblehome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tumblehome

    Comparison of conventional hull and the Visby-class corvette USS Zumwalt undergoing sea trials in December 2015 Tumblehome has been used in proposals for several modern ship projects. The hull form in combination with choice of materials results in decreased radar reflection, which together with other signature (sound, heat etc.) damping ...

  9. Balao-class submarine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balao-class_submarine

    A switch to a new High-Tensile Steel (HTS) alloy, combined with an increase in hull thickness from 9 ⁄ 16 inch (14.3 mm) to 7 ⁄ 8 inch (22.2 mm), would result in a test depth of 450 ft (140 m) and a collapse depth of 900 ft (270 m).
