In this first part of the submarine design series, we will learn about the design of naval submarines, familiarising ourselves with the design and functionalities of a submarine, its parts, general arrangement, structural design and arrangement, stability of a submarine, the systems used in a submarine, etc.
Learn about fifteen important advantages of the advanced outfitting shipbuilding method for the modern shipyards.
Shipyards that implement advanced outfitting have special facilities required to allow this method to be applied efficiently, in order to obtain maximum benefits.
The concept of advanced outfitting has been developed in order to reduce the cycle time and improve the productivity of the shipyards. Learn more about the process inside the article.
An abrupt change in shape or cross-section of ship’s structure is known as structural discontinuity. Learn about different types of structural discontinuities in ship’s structure and various design methodologies used to reduce their effects.
Though some of the tanks used in a submarine are similar to that used on surface ships, most of them are different and unique to the nature of operation of a submarine, which makes it an important aspect to be studied in detail.
Rogue waves (also called freak waves) can be dangerous to ships at sea. Learn about the various effects of rogue waves on ship’s structure.
