Course Objective

This course aims to provide students who have knowledge about strength of materials, with theoretical knowledge so that they can analyze continuous beams and plates that form the vast majority of the ship building structures, and to introduce current instruments necessary to realize above mentioned analyses.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   To be able to analyze behaviors of continuous beams of ships by means of proper analytical methods
2   To be able to contribute to the preliminary design phase of ships by structural analyses
3   To be able to analyze behaviors of plate of ships by means of analytical methods
4   To be able to appreciate structural analysis methods and to orientate to meet of its own needs
5   To acquaint oneself with current national and international rules, and to know the related monitoring methods
