- Acquiring practical insight into the methods of experimental marine hydrodynamics and work in the pool.
- Student responsibilities:
- Grading and evaluation of student work over the course of instruction and at a final exam:
- Project assignment, oral exam.
- Methods of monitoring quality that ensure acquisition of exit competences:
- Attending lab excercises, activity during lectures and excercises, discussion during the excercises,, colloquiums, final exam (oral)
- Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to (learning outcomes):
- Organize standard tests in the towing tank. - Prepare the model for the test. - Conduct open water test. - Conduct self propulsion test. - Plan tests with propeller in the cavitation tunnel. - Create the seakeeping test. - Assess manoeuvring test and determine the flow near the rudder.
- Lectures
- 1. Introduction, laboratory work consists of the preparation part and practical work in the laboratory
