This document contains calculations for the midship section modulus and moment of inertia of a ship. It provides the dimensions, areas, section moduli, and moments of inertia for various structural elements both above and below the assumed neutral axis. The total section modulus at the keel is 4639.59 cm^3 and at the main deck is 9279.19 cm^3. The actual neutral axis is located 17.22 cm above the assumed axis.
The world today has about 4000 offshore support vessels of various types. While statistical data are not very precise, there appears to be more than 200 under construction at present. These modern vessels, intended for fleet replacement on the one hand, and to meet the more demanding needs of deeper water operations on the other, are of much improved designs and packed with multifunctional capabilities.

These modern vessels, intended for fleet replacement on the one hand, and to meet the more demanding needs of deeper water operations on the other, are of much improved designs and packed with multifunctional capabilities.
Dublin Port Company required a twin-screw work barge/pontoon to be built for Harbor and
Coastal work including the Irish Sea. The vessel which we design complies with Bureau
Veritas requirements for workboats. Its duties include bed leveling, towing, buoy and quay
maintenance and an oil recovery option with ½ day „bolt on‟ facility. We can also count
diving support, anchor handling, supply, survey, mooring, pollution control, etc. for its duties.
Requested main specifications are:
L.O.A. 20 meters approx.
Beam O.A. 8 meters approx.
Depth midships. 2.7 meters approx.
Displacement 170-ton approx.
Leveling depth 16 meters approx
Fuel oil capacity 25,000 liters approx.
F.W. capacity 10,000 liters approx.
The hull, propeller, shaft, main and auxiliary engines, rudder and steering gear are selected by
taking into account Classification Society regulations. All trade names mentioned in the
specifications describe the desired quality of equipment and not intended to exclude other
makes of similar quality.
Fantastic tutorial, shared with us by Dario Ilardi, of Grafica2d3d.com, I recommend to see.
The website is in Italian, but it is full of excellent tutorials, understandable in any language.
This great tutorial, explain, step by step, how to obtain, by using vray 2.0 for sketchup, a render, clear and clean as what we see in the picture below.
Dario say : " I'm experimenting with the use of brute force as a substitute of irradiance map and I must say that in terms of speed and quality impressed me positively "
Thanks so much Dario for this one, the result is really good !
