15:00 tumblehome design helps in the stability of the ship, by lowering the centre of mass and by therefore lowering the centre of gravity in the ships design. This helps it become more seaworhty by making it less prone to violent rolling. It works like a damped inverted pendulum. I saw he was struggling with explaining it, so i dropped this in the comments. For notable examples of tumblehome designs search for french pre-dreadnought battleships.
Thank you for explaining. I am not a ship builder but am a sw engineer, very interested in ships. We put so many bulkheads, so where do people find place to put the Decks and passenger cabins. Is it built inside these bulk heads or what. Sorry if my question is foolish.
I have viewed all five videos on your channel, I am at entry level in shipping industry and these contents seems to be really helpful, thank you so much. Sorry to say the video quality is a bit disappointed. But above all thanks again.
Hi, we see ships for e.g cargo ships, oil container ships etc. which don't have that upper flare. They are more like a wide bucket in the water. How do these ships achieve buoyancy?
Agree. It's a perpendicular drawn where the aft side of the rudder post (not rudder) meets the Summer Load line, In absence of rudder post, it's taken at the centreline of the rudder stock.
Where to find material on the history of maritime trade of India and the world, the big shipping guilds, magnates of India who traded with ancient Greece, Rome, Phoenicians, Israelites, ancient Arabs, Radhanites?? There is good detailed history available of the ancient Greek Roman shipping magnates and their detailed maritime history.
Great ! Explanation 🙏 appreciate very much ! You have simplified and consolidated the vast study of ship construction into a nutshell ! Truly great effort exercised ? Thank you very much ! God bless always 🙏 looking forward for more of your videos in anticipation ? 👍
Please make videos for Function 1 sir , your videos helped greatly , covered all my syllabus and very easy to understand like this I have viewed all your videos and it really helped in passing my Function 3 , please make videos for Function 1 as well sir
Good video, can you explain a catamaran? Axe bow, wave cutter, like a semi submersible. Like a Dashew yacht design, or a Bering yacht, designed for less roll and reduced loss in forward momentum.
Abishek Natarajan Garboard Strake' is the very next Strake' to the keel plate . Or The Strake' adjacent to the keel plate is the Garboard Strake'. And Turn of Bilge is the Bilge Strake' .It is the Strake' where the bottom shell turns to side shell.
Hi, brother, this video is very informational and helpful. Can I use it on our video sharing platform like YouKu in China? So my friends can have access to this excellent material;
Xiao-Ming Xu Thank you, Yes you can use it on Youku but you cannot monetise this videos, also you got to put a Credit note in the Description stating -"This Video is made by Nihal Gupta and all rights to the video remain reserved with him"
The Hull of a ship is a hollow body enclosed by Plating (side shell plating,bottom shell plating, Deck plating). We all know what we mean by plate. It is a rectangular shape steel with certain thickness. Number of plates put up together usually in the longitudinal direction make up a Strake, (eg-Sheer Strake,Stringer Strake/plate etc) eg-Sheer strake is made up of numerous side shell plates in longitudinal direction. In naval architecture and ship construction each of these plate has an identification.These are numbered in certain pattern. The plates are identified by a letter and a number.Each plate is given a letter in the vertical direction starting with A from the bottom. Each plate is given a number in the horizontal direction starting from aft. Each section of the plate placed in fore and aft direction is called a “strake”. It is the shell expansion plan where the numbering of plates and lettering of plate strakes are used for reference purposes. Hope this Clears your doubt.
