Course Objective

This course is aiming at introducing the form of ships with the related terminology and the design parameters in conjunction with the functionality of ships and giving some useful informations on basic calculations for the design purposes such as coefficients of form, hydrostatics and stability, scantlings of structural elements by rule-based approaches, simple power prediction methods, etc. Shipping terminology will be also given during the course.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   To be able to define a ship form with a related correct terminology
2   To be able to make some basic calculations for his/her design purpose
3   To be able to benefit from the basic resources of ship design by not suffering difficulties
4   To be able to communicate and work together easily with who from engineering disciplinary with his gained knowledge

Course Policies and Rules

Attendance: You are required to attend every section meeting. I will take attendance at the beginning of each section. Each unexcused absence will result in a 5-point deduction from your overall section grade at the end of the semester. If you are absent, you are responsible for any material covered. Plagiarism: Plagiarism involves presenting someone else s words or ideas as your own. This includes using someone else s assignment as your own as well as failing to properly cite the sources of ideas or words. I will report any student caught palgiarizing to the Academic Judiciary Board.
