Lectures

Goal

The application and development of numerical methods for the solution of various problems in ship hydrodynamics.

Outcome

Student should be capable of: 1) conducting calculations and solving various problems in ship hydrodynamics using numerical methods. 2) developing of new numerical methods, based on results of experimental investigation of hydrodynamic performances of ships.

Theoretical teaching

Contemporary numerical methods in ship hydrodynamics. Available engineering tools for development of new methods.

Practical teaching

Development and application of numerical methods in ship hydrodynamics in deep and restricted/shallow water, for determination of: ship resistance, ship-propeller-rudder interactions, external influences, etc.
