Module overview

This module extends the fundamentals associated with the structural design of floating maritime vessels to account for the complexity of fluid-structure interactions on ship life and operation. Students will assess the impact of fluid-structure interactions by predicting the structural integrity through life of floating maritime vessels in a seaway.

There are two assignments which integrate the fluid loading and structural response through applications to real floating vessels.
