CODE 108722 ACADEMIC YEAR 2025/2026 CREDITS 12 cfu anno 2 INGEGNERIA NAVALE 8738 (LM-34) - GENOVA TEACHING LOCATION GENOVA MODULES Questo insegnamento è composto da: RELIABILITY AND SAFETY OF MARINE PLANTS NAVAL PROPULSION SYSTEMS TEACHING MATERIALS AULAWEB OVERVIEW The course deals with Marine Engineering which includes propulsion systems, auxiliary and safety systems of ships. The course is divided into two modules: Reliability and Safety of Ship systems and Propulsion Plants. The Reliability and Safety module deals with RAMS (Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Safety) engineering disciplines applied to ship systems and Risk Analysis applied to ships. The Ship Propulsion Plants module deals with the operating principles of marine propulsion for different types of ships. Particular attention will be given to the aspects related to dynamics and control. Both the theoretical / methodological and practical aspects will be illustrated, with particular emphasis on advanced design and numerical / implementation aspects. AIMS AND CONTENT LEARNING OUTCOMES The teaching unit aims to: understand the complexity of ship systems, understand the relationships between requirements and functional design, apply some design methodologies presented during the lessons. The teaching unit is divided into two modules: Reliability and Safety of Marine Systems and Propulsion Systems. The Reliability and Safety module aims to understand the RAMS engineering disciplines and apply them to ship systems. The Marine Propulsion Systems module aims to show the main design methods and to present the application of the methods to some types of ships. The course addresses the design issues from a perspective capable of capturing the technological evolution of the sector. The module will provide engineering and soft skills to face present and future environmental issues related to the shipping sector, in accordance with UN Goals n. 14 and n. 15. PREREQUISITES Knowledge of static methods for the design of marine propulsion. Basic knowledge of the principles of naval architecture. Principles of programming.
