OVERVIEW

The course provides knowledge on a systemic perspective allowing the successful decision making process necessary during the ship design procedure of ships especially characterized by high value and high technology density.

The ship design process is analysed in the life-cycle perspective and circular economy domain to frame the shipbuilding activity and the shipping in general inthe context of sustainable development.

The main interaction among different specialistic aspects characterizing the ship design are analyzed and discussed along the linear iterative path of the design spiral.

 

AIMS AND CONTENT

LEARNING OUTCOMES

To carry out the synthesis among the mail technical subjects characterizing the ship design

AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES

develop the adequate requirements analysis for the selection of the appropriate solution

acquire the competences to balance the several needs, possibly conflicting, arising during the ship design

compare different possible solutions with reference to suitable criteria

TEACHING METHODS

lectures in classroom;

open discussion on selected topics;

application on practical cases.

Working students and students with certified SLD (Specific Learning Disorders), disability or other special educational needs are advised to contact the teacher at the beginning of the course to agree on teaching and examination arrangements so to take into account individual learning patterns, while respecting the teaching objectives.
