and, especially, with their design and construction. In the first chapter, we will discuss about cruise ships in general, their history and origins, operators, organization (dining, crew, business model, ship naming etc.), regional industries. The next chapter is dedicated to cruise ship designing. We will get informed about the interior design of the ships, the New Russia cruise ships designs and the revolutionary new expedition cruise ships designs. In the end, we will focus on the cruise ships construction. We will discuss about the cruise ships engine, the engine room, conventional diesel cruise ships engine, diesel electric engine, emergency generators, categories of propulsions and cruise ship power. [5] CHAPTER 1: Introduction A cruise ship is a passenger ship used for recreational and leisure voyages, in which the journey itself and the onboard amenities, attractions, activities and entertainment options are integrant part of the cruise experience. The rapid growth and specialization process experienced by the cruise industry in the last decades has also affected the design and general aesthetics, materials, size and overall onboard functionalities, equipment and amenities of modern cruise ships and recreational vessels to satisfy a clientele more and more numerous and sensitive to quality, who demands the most diversified services with assurance of satisfaction and excellence, while providing solutions to the growing concerns about the cruise industry’s environmental impact on marine and coastal communities and ecosystems. Nowadays, every continent and region on Earth can be visited onboard a cruise or recreational ship, including the most exotic, faraway places and secluded destinations. In the same way, and along the last years, a good number of vessels managed by companies and organizations unrelated to the cruise industry have been redesigned or adapted to offer cruise services to passengers looking for unconventional experiences. [6] CHAPTER 2: CRUISE SHIPS 2.1 Definition A cruise ship or cruise liner is a passenger ship used for pleasure voyages, where the voyage itself and the ship's amenities are a part of the experience, as well as the different destinations along the way, i.e., ports of call. Transportation is not the only purpose of cruising, particularly on cruises that return passengers to their originating port (also known as a closed-loop cruise), with the ports of call usually in a specified region of a continent. There are even "cruises to nowhere" or "nowhere voyages" where the ship makes 2–3 night round trips without any ports of call. By contrast, dedicated transport oriented ocean liners do "line voyages" and typically transport passengers from one point to another, rather than on round trips. Traditionally, a liner for the transoceanic trade will be built to a higher standard than a typical cruise ship, including higher freeboard and stronger plating to withstand rough seas and adverse conditions encountered in the open ocean, such as the North Atlantic. Ocean liners also usually have larger

  • Date: April 22, 2003 Trip Report to Northern Europe for National
    Date: April 22, 2003 Subject: Trip Report to Northern Europe for National Science Foundation project From: Richard P. Voelker Chief, Advanced Technology Office of Shipbuilding and Marine Technology To: Joseph A. Byrne Director Office of Shipbuilding and Marine Technology During March 12-27, I traveled with representatives of the National Science Foundation (Alexander Sutherland), Raytheon Polar Services Corporation (Paul Olsgaard) and Science and Technology Corporation (James St. John and Aleksandr Iyerusalimskiy) to Finland, Sweden and Germany. The purpose of the trip was to gain insight into the design and operation of their national icebreakers, many of which incorporate innovative concepts. Visits were made to the Finnish Maritime Administration (Markku Mylly) and their icebreaker BOTNICA, the Swedish Maritime Administration (Anders Backman) and their icebreaker ODEN, and the German Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research (Eberhard Fahrbach). Information was also obtained on the new Swedish icebreaker class VIKING and the German polar research vessel POLARSTERN. Attachment A provides some of the notes from our visit while Attachment B contains a discussion on some elements of the technical specification for the new generation research/icebreaker vessel. The trip was very valuable and provided a great start to the feasibility-level design study that MARAD has been contracted to perform for the NSF. A presentation describing this trip and some interim results from the feasibility-level design study will be made in mid-May to interested MAR-760 members. # Attachment A – Notes from the visit ---------- Briefing by Paavo Lohi - Aker Finnyards, builder of BOTNICA The bow skeg or bilge keels do not affect the flow of ice around the hull.

  • Construction of a Hardware-In-The-Loop Simulator for Azipod Control System Testing
    Markus Nylund Construction of a hardware-in-the-loop simulator for Azipod control system testing Thesis submitted for examination for the degree of Master of Science in Technology. Espoo 03.08.2016 Thesis supervisor: Prof. Seppo Ovaska Thesis advisor: D.Sc. (Tech.) Juha Orivuori Aalto-universitetet, PL 11000, 00076 AALTO www.aalto.fi Sammandrag av diplomarbete Författare Markus T. V. Nylund Titel Construction of a hardware-in-the-loop simulator for Azipod control system testing Examensprogram Utbildningsprogrammet för elektronik och elektroteknik Huvud-/biämne Elektronik med tillämpningar Kod S3007 Övervakare Prof. Seppo Ovaska Handledare TkD Juha Orivuori Datum 03.08.2016 Sidantal 9+90 Språk engelska Sammandrag Syftet med detta diplomarbete är att konstruera en simulator för Azipod® roderpropellern. Azipod® är ett varumärke av en roderpropeller med en elmotor som driver propellern. Hela roderenheten är belägen utanför fartygets skrov och det är möjligt att rotera roderpropellern obegränsat runt sin axel. Unikt för roderpropellrar är att drivkraften kan göras fullständigt elektriskt samt att roderpropellern är en dragande propeller till skillnad från tryckande konventionella propellrar. Dessa egenskaper ökar på ett fartygs energieffektivitet. Målet med arbetet är att bygga en (Azipod®) roderpropellersimulator och en tillhörande styrenhet som liknar fartygs styrenheter. Fokus för arbetet ligger på propulsionsstyrenheten. Simulatorn skall fungera liknande som den kommersiella produkten, men med mindre hårdvara. Fartygs styrkonsolpaneler samt alla nödvändiga mätinstrument virtualiseras. Ett extra program skapas för att möjliggöra stimulans för systemet för de virtualiserade mätinstrumenten. Detta program körs från en godtycklig dator som är uppkopplad till simulator nätverket. Simulering av Azipod® roderpropellern utförs av två sammankopplade motorer. Den ena motorn representerar en Azipod® rodermotor och den andra motorn belastar propulsionsmotorn.
