This paper aims to present a new approach in the prediction of manoeuvring abilities of pod-driven ships. A new mathematical model of motions based on MMG methodology was developed and a new type of description of forces acting on azimuth drives is presented. Captive model tests of medium-size coastal tanker and pod open water tests were carried out in CTO S.A. (Ship Design and Research Centre S.A.) to obtain hull hydrodynamic derivatives...

Nowadays, CFD becomes one of the most commonly used research method in ship hydrodynamics, limited to the analyses of hull resistance in calm water. With continuously improving computing power and increasingly more accurate numerical methods it is possible to simulate more complex cases. State of the art CFD tools also enable development of new ways of assessing ship maneuvering performance. This paper presents an attempt on...

Architektoniczny wymiar wystawy ukształtowały będą przede wszystkim znakomite makiety ikonicznych budynków Gdyni i Tel Awiwu. Rytm ich rozstawienia, w sposób intuicyjny prowadzić miał zwiedzających przez prezentowane treści, odwołujące się do różnorodnych form i funkcji architektury modernizmu. Szczególna uwaga poświęcona została podobieństwom i różnicom między oboma miastami, w zakresach: układu urbanistycznego, charakteru zabudowy,...
