2. Course Topics and Description
(1) Procedures and methods of the basic ship design process are introduced: Determination of ship’s principal dimensions, Estimation of weight, Estimation of cargo hold volume, Calculation of freeboard, Prediction of resistance, speed and power, Determination of propeller principal dimensions, Selection of main engine, Hull form design by hull form variation method, General arrangement design, Naval architectural calculation such as volume, hydrostatics, trim & stability, subdivision & damage stability (SDS), longitudinal strength, Midship section structural design, Grillage analysis for Hull Structure.

(2) Students have to work in team, consisting of 5 to 6 students, on two term projects for given owner’s requirements. The 1st term project is a conceptual design of a container ship based on the given basis container ship and is obligatory for all students. After completing the conceptual design, students can then either join the “Ship Design Contest” or continue their 1st term project and start the 2nd term project handling the basic design of the container ship. The teams who are participating in the ship design contest will be favored in their grading.
