This course covers hydrostatics and stability principles for Ships and other floating structures: from hydrostatic equilibrium to righting arm curves and statutory stability criteria verification, and longitudinal strength.

Syllabus

• Hydrostatic principles, floatation, weight vs buoyancy, metacentric height.
• Righting arm curve & stability criteria
• Downflooding points
• Tank types & free surface models
• Heeling moment models
• Longitudinal strength: shear force & bending moment, girder deflection
