Abstract |
|
The ship hull is the major part of the ship which forms the skeleton of ships bottom structure. There is a need for the naval architects and engineers to make the hull a super strong structure by making the hull heavier to withstand heavy loads (which may not be needed for certain offshore conditions). If the mass of the ship increases, then the propulsive power of the hull decreases. So, the work concentrated on determination of effective thickness of the hull structure is important. Various mid ship sections of 120m container ship are modelled in Solidworks software and analysed with alloy steel, titanium alloy, and aluminium alloy in Solidworks simulation 2014 tool. Dead weight of the ship, hydrodynamic loads and hydrostatic loads were consideration during structural simulation. Best mid ship section with optimum thickness and suitable material is determined. |
