The book is complemented by a basic bibliography and five appendices with useful updated charts for the selection of the main dimensions and other basic characteristics of different types of ships (Appendix A), the determination of hull form from the data of systematic hull form series (Appendix B), the detailed description of the relational method for the preliminary estimation of ship weights (Appendix C), a brief review of the historical evolution of shipbuilding science and technology from the prehistoric era to date (Appendix D) and finally a historical review of regulatory developments of ship's damage stability to date (Appendix E).  The book can be used as textbook for ship design courses or as additional reading for university or college students of naval architecture courses and related disciplines; it may also serve as a reference book for naval architects, practicing engineers of related disciplines and ship officers, who like to enter the ship design field systematically or to use practical methodologies for the estimation of ship's main dimensions and of other ship main properties and elements of ship design.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51123385467153,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51123388121361,"sku":"NIN9789401787505","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52407425073425,"sku":"NLS9789401787505","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9401787506.jpg?v=1751385437"},{"product_id":"holistic-approach-to-ship-design-book-apostolos-papanikolaou-9783030710934","title":"A Holistic Approach to Ship Design","description":"This book deals with modern Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software tools and platforms implemented in ship design, the integration of techno-economic databases, the use of optimisation and simulation software tools, which are integrated in these platforms, and the virtual modelling of ships and their operation by using a Virtual Vessel Framework (VVF). It contains a series of application case studies related to the developed holistic approach to ship design and operation. Nine case studies are described, referring to the design and operation of various ship types, namely RoPax, cruise ship, double-ended ferry, bulk carrier, containership, offshore support vessel, ocean surveillance ship and research vessel and one offshore structure. All case studies are driven by leading representatives of the European Maritime Industry.

It includes a comprehensive bibliography on ship design and several appendices featuring useful charts for selecting the main dimensions and other basic characteristics of various types and sizes of ships (Appendix A). Additionally, it covers the determination of hull form using systematic hull form series data (Appendix B), a detailed explanation of the relational method for preliminary ship weight estimation (Appendix C), a concise review of the historical evolution of shipbuilding science and technology from the prehistoric era to the present (Appendix D), and a historical overview of regulatory developments in ship damage stability (Appendix E).   The present second edition incorporates more recent scientific, technological, and regulatory advancements in ship design and maritime transport. It specifically addresses the introduction of holistic approaches and optimization in ship design, as well as the impact of the latest international regulations concerning the decarbonization of shipping. This edition also includes two additional appendices: the holistic optimisation of ship design with an innovative tanker design case study (Appendix F) and a multi-authored State of the Art report of ship design in the era of digital transition (Appendix G).   This book serves as a textbook for ship design courses and as supplementary reading for university and college students in naval architecture and related disciplines. It also functions as a reference for naval architects, practicing engineers in related fields, and ship officers seeking a systematic introduction to the broader field of ship design or practical methodologies for estimating ship dimensions, properties, and design elements.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":53265047716113,"sku":"NGR9783032119599","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783032119599.jpg?v=1773876427"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/collections\/author-books-by-apostolos-papanikolaou.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
