Book Ship Structural Analysis and Design

Download or read book Ship Structural Analysis and Design written by Owen F. Hughes and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a structure as large ans as complex as a ship there are three levels of structural design, the second and most central of which is the subject of this book. Rationally-based design is design from first principles using the tools of modern engineering science: computer and the methods of structural analysis and optimization which computers have made possible. Thus, the rationally-based approach is ideally suited for preliminary structural design, and it is this approach and this level of design that is the subject of this book.

Book Design of Ships  Structures

Download or read book Design of Ships Structures written by D. W. Chalmers and published by Stationery Office Books (TSO). This book was released on 1993 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication presents the methods for the design of ships' structures. These methods are applicable to any medium or large vessel designed by direct calculation, as well as to the warship hulls on which the book was originally based, as these are invariably designed without recourse to classification society rules. Taking as its starting point an assumed functional specification, it shows how a structure can be created to meet this requirement.

Book Design of Ship Hull Structures

Download or read book Design of Ship Hull Structures written by Yasuhisa Okumoto and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-03-25 with total page 571 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, the four authors show us the condensed experience how to design ship hull structures from a practical viewpoint. In three parts, the book presents the fundamentals, the theory and the application of structural design of hulls. The topics are treated comprehensively with an emphasis on how to achieve reliable and efficient ship structures. The authors have in particular introduced their experiences with the rapid increase of ship sizes as well as the introduction of ship types with a high degree of specialization. The associated early failures of these "new" structures have been analyzed to provide the readers with illustrations why structural design needs to be carried out on several levels in order to ensure that correct loading is applied and that local structural behaviour in properly understood.
