Outcome / Qualification etc.
What you'll learn
- How naval architecture interacts and combines with other mechanical engineering disciplines
- The concepts related to the ship’s equilibrium and the factors affecting it
- A working knowledge of elements of stability assessments both at small angles and large angles
- Different forces acting on the ship during movement and what the overall interaction with environment is
