 Literature Review

 Choosing a subject and Supervisor (preferably topic suitable for

Major Project)
 How to make a good project plan
 Importance of literature review
 Selecting a topic of interest related to NA&OE and undergoing
literature review
 Extracting information from the selected literature
 Writing: Summary, Draft and Final
 Methods of writing References
 MOCK INTERVIEWS

 The students would be exposed to mock interviews. It provides the

students with an opportunity to practice for an interview and
receive feedback.

 The students would learn how to answer difficult questions,

develop interview strategies, improve the communication skills
and reduce their stress before an actual job interview.

SHIP RESISTANCE
 SHIP RESISTANCE – WHY?

Prediction of ship power

Ship resistance is a function of

 Ship Hull Form (length, breadth, draft, wetted surface)

 Ship Speed
 Water temperature
 SHIP RESISTANCE – TYPES

Resistance

Frictional Residuary Air Other

Eddy
Wave making Steering

Added resistance

Shallow water
 SHIP RESISTANCE – TYPES
 Depends on ship wetted surface, ship
speed and viscosity
Frictional  Contributes more than 70% especially
for low speed ships and below 40% for
high speed ships
 Energy loss caused by waves created.
Depends on beam-length ratio, hull
shape, displacement, Froude number
Residuary
 Contributes more than 10 - 30%
especially for low speed and below 40 -
60% for high speed vessels
 Depends on area exposed to air, wind
velocity and wind direction
Air  Contributes normally 2% but it can go
up to 10%
 SHIP RESISTANCE – TYPES
 Caused due to the motion of rudder
 It’s contribution is small. But in high
Steering speed vessels such as warships it has
significant impact.

 Additional resistance due to ocean

Added waves. It will increase in significant
Resistance sea states.

 Increased resistance in shallow water.

 Increased wetted surface due to squat
Shallow water
 Waves produced in shallow water is
larger than those produced in deep
water.
 METHODS TO ESTIMATE RESISTANCE?

 BULBOUS BOW?

To reduce the ship resistance

Not efficient at all speed

ranges – very low Froude
