Detailed description of topics:

Exercise mt032P is subdivided over the weeks of the quintals as follows:

P1: Quintal 1: each week one afternoon for basic exercises as follows:

  • wk 1 Representation of 3D objects by one dimensional pictures
  • wk 2,3 Conventions for projection-drawings
  • wk 4,5 Intersection-curves of bodies with bodies or planes
  • wk 6 Plate-expansion for developable surface of a funnel

P2: Quintal 2: each week one afternoon practice of sketching, structural design or calculations:

  • wk 1 Expansion of shell plate
  • wk 2 Sketching of maritime objects,
  • wk 3,4 Drawing and 3D sketch of deckconstruction,
  • wk 5,6 Calculation of the ship resistance using model measurement data

P3: Quintal 4: each week one afternoon exercise introduction CAD (with xEagle)

P4: Quintal 4: each week one afternoon exercise sketching

P5: Quintal 5: each week one afternoon exercise structural design and strength:

  • wk 1 Strength calculation for propeller shaft with flange coupling
  • wk 2,3 Strength calculation for welds and bolt connections of cantilever beam as fabricated during mtop01 d5 p3
  • wk 4..6 Design, calculation of scantlings and drawing for a transverse bulkhead of a ship.

Remarks (specific information about assesment, entry requirements, etc.):

Examination:

  • Separate credit points will be given for the 5 main parts p1 .. p5, based upon the averaged results for the part exercises, provided that the results of all part exercises have been submitted
  • The credits obtained for each main part, P1 .. P5, has to be at least 6 (sufficient)
  • The overall credits for mt032p is the weighted average of the main parts using weighing factors 0.6/0.6/0.6/1.0/0.7
  • The exercise mt032p is considered sufficient when the overall credits are 6 or higher.
Goals:
  • Introduction to drawing conventions
  • Learning to use sketches as a graphical way of communication
  • Practical application of theory teached in courses mt500 and mt800
Computer use:
Usage of the computer for some parts of mt032p is adviced
Laboratory project(s): exercise
