Over the years there were many changes in the marine industry. Ships became bigger and the crew drastically reduced. Many different types of vehicles (Hovercrafts, multi-hull and so on) have emerged. With the advent of latest technology more accurate assesment of stability, strength, manoeuvring, motions and powering are possible using complex computer designs. However the fundamentals concepts of the naval archetecture remain the same.
This site contains types of ships, experiments done on ships and so on. It is being constantly updated so if you find anything that is not present and you want to know contact me and I will update it. |
