Break-bulk cargo ships The inboard space in break bulk cargo ships is divided longitudinally by transverse bulkheads spaced 40-70 ft apart, into a series of cargo compartments of approximately equal volume
1.1 Definition The general arrangement of a ship can be defined as the assignment of spaces for all the required functions and equipment, properly coordinated for location and access. Four consecutive steps characterize general arrangement; namely, allocation of main spaces, setting
The basis for ship equilibrium Consider a ship floating upright on the surface of motionless water. In order to be at rest or in equilibrium, there must be no unbalanced forces or moments acting on it. There are two forces that maintain this equilibrium (1) the force of gravity, and (2) the force of buoyancy
Ship motions Ship motions are defined by the movements from the equilibrium position of the ship's centre of gravity along the three axes shown in Figure and by rotations about axes approximately parallel to these. The linear displacements along the horizontal
IEEE Citation Style Guide Any citation style is set up to give the reader immediate information about sources cited in the text. In IEEE citations, the references should be numbered and appear in the order they appear in the text. When referring to a reference in the text of the document, put the number of the reference in square brackets
