The Future Of Ship Design
,QWURGXFWLRQ
Dear Colleague,
The Future of Ship Design is intended for naval architects, marine engineers and
for professionals working with the development of newbuilding ship projects from
first feasibility studies through project and contract design into planning, basic and
detail design. Working and design methods are also considered.
The authors are experienced naval architects, marine engineers, mechanical
engineers and electrical engineers, all working at Deltamarin Ltd on the date of
publishing. The background of the is in the Finnish shipbuilding as many of them
have been working at the Finnish shipyards. All the authors have international
experience mainly from European shipbuilding. This experience covers
consulting, design and engineering tasks for various shipping companies,
shipyards and suppliers as well s supervising and commissioning tasks of
newbuildings and conversions.
The Future of Ship Design sets out to inform the practising Naval Architect and
Engineer of the latest design techniques at his disposal, and then puts these in
context by quoting case study material. Attention is paid to the important aspects
of the hydrodynamics, machinery, structure and equipment design considerations,
vital parts of the ship design mix.
The tremendous technical development we have faced in ship design during the
last decade issues us as designers a big challenge for the 21st century. New
technology has been introduced faster than ever before in our industry.
The issue is to maximise the efficient revenue generating space at minimised
investment and running costs but taking into account availability and
environmental impacts as well.
The tendency is clear and promising, new products and innovations are
introduced and completely new ship configurations can he developed based on
new system and machinery products on the market.
It is important to understand and consider the life cycle costs but taking into
account possible additional revenue when considering new configurations.
Typical case studies are handled showing the importance of a techno-economic
design approach.
Finally innovative design techniques available today and signifying a quantum
leap in the ship design and project coordination in the early 21st century are
discussed.
I hope this book will offer a platform for further exchange of valuable information
in our common effort for more efficient products: ships for the 21st century.
Yours sincerely,
Markku Kanerva
