Practice Problems in Naval Achitecture

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on finding online resources for practice problems in naval architecture, specifically related to ship motion. Key recommendations include the lecture notes available at Ship Hydromechanics and the MIT OpenCourseWare (OCW) website, which hosts materials from the Ocean Engineering department. Additionally, the book "Practical Ship Hydrodynamics" by Volker Bertram is suggested as a comprehensive resource, although it contains practice problems only in the first three chapters.

PREREQUISITES
  • Basic understanding of naval architecture principles
  • Familiarity with ship motion concepts
  • Access to online educational resources
  • Ability to interpret academic lecture notes
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore the MIT OpenCourseWare for Ocean Engineering materials
  • Review the lecture notes on ship hydromechanics for additional practice problems
  • Read "Practical Ship Hydrodynamics" by Volker Bertram for in-depth knowledge
  • Investigate other online platforms offering naval architecture practice problems
USEFUL FOR

Students and professionals in naval architecture, marine engineers, and anyone seeking to enhance their understanding of ship motion through practical exercises.

This will be a long shot...Does anyone know of an online resource where I can get practice problems in naval architecture. Specifically, on ship motion? Thanks

Here is one set of lectures which have a few problems in each chapter:

You might also try the MIT OCW website. I believe Ocean Engineering is now the home of the N.A. department at MIT now.
 
Of course! I forgot about MIT OCW. And I have that PDF already, only the first 3 chapters have practice problems. This book is a lot longer:
"Practical Ship Hydrodynamics" by Volker Bertram. I found it online.
