Ship Manoeuvring and Control
Safe and efficient operation of marine vehicles depends on their ability to manoeuvre predictably and respond effectively to control inputs. From conventional ships to autonomous maritime systems, manoeuvring and control are increasingly important aspects of modern vessel design and operation.
In this module, you will develop an understanding of the principles that govern marine vehicle motion and control. You will explore how hydrodynamic forces influence manoeuvring performance and how control system theory can be applied to vessels operating on and below the water surface. Through analytical modelling and simulation-based activities, you will learn how engineers predict and improve vessel behaviour in a range of operating scenarios.
By the end of the module, you will be able to evaluate manoeuvring performance and apply control concepts to marine vehicle systems. The knowledge developed will support further study in autonomy, maritime robotics, vessel performance and advanced marine systems engineering. -

Ship Resistance and Propulsion
This module identifies the fundamental aspects and describes practical approaches for ship resistance and associated propulsion including propeller design and engine selection. Students will estimate the ship resistance and design propeller to fulfil the propulsion requirement. There are two laboratories and one assignment as well as a number of tutorials in this module to enable the students to demonstrate their understanding of the concepts and the applications. -

Ship Resistance and Propulsion
Efficient propulsion is central to the performance, economics and environmental impact of modern ships. Understanding how vessels move through water and how propulsion systems convert power into useful thrust is critical to reducing fuel consumption, improving sustainability and meeting increasingly demanding industry expectations.
In this module, you will develop the analytical and practical skills needed to evaluate ship resistance and propulsive performance in calm water. You will learn to estimate resistance, select propulsion arrangements and design propellers to meet operational requirements. Laboratory work, tutorials and design-based activities will help you connect theoretical models with real engineering systems and develop confidence in interpreting experimental and analytical data.
By the end of the module, you will be able to assess calm water ship propulsion requirements and evaluate the performance of propulsion systems using established engineering methods. The module provides an important foundation for advanced study in ship performance, hydrodynamics and sustainable maritime design. -

Ship Structural Design and Production
This module aims to examine aspects of design relevant to the longitudinal and transverse strength of a ship. This is conducted through both first principles design and the use of classification society rules. In addition the production technology applicable to the shipbuilding industry is examined from the perspective of the shipyard and its management but also from a design for production viewpoint. The complementary management module will also provide production planning and scheduling relevant to ship production.
