MNS 2105 Ship Design

Course Description
Explore the intricate world of ship design and analysis in this comprehensive course. Participants will navigate through preliminary estimates for new ships, covering main dimensions, group weights, and capacities, while also examining approximate hydrostatic particulars. Delve into ship resistance, speed types, and power systems, fostering a nuanced understanding of these critical elements. Additionally, topics such as power coefficients, preliminary design methodologies for propellers and rudders, and the economic analysis of ship design will be meticulously examined. Through this approach, participants will acquire the expertise necessary to navigate the complexities of modern maritime engineering with finesse and proficiency.

Learning Outcomes
At the end of this course, a student can:

• Apply scientific principles towards ship design.
• Analyse methodological knowledge on the general layout principles of a marine vessel. 
• Evaluate ships' hydrostatics, stability, resistance, and energy and resource efficiency, even based on limited information.
• Design various MV layouts based on relevant scientific, social, ethical, economic, and environmental aspects, and international regulatory frameworks.
