🌊⚙️ The key to modern maritime propulsion: Did you know that an Austrian invented the marine propeller and brought it to technical maturity?    Josef Ressel, an Austrian inventor, changed the world of marine travel with his revolutionary propeller design. Born in 1793, Ressel's journey began in Chrudim, part of the Habsburg Monarchy. His innovative design was first tested in 1827 in Trieste, the largest port of the Austrian Empire.    Despite an early setback due to a steam engine explosion, Ressel's propeller soon became essential for modern marine engineering.    Patented in 1827, Ressel's invention allowed ships to navigate more efficiently and powerfully. His design reduced drag and increased propulsion efficiency, making ship travel faster and more reliable.    This breakthrough not only transformed naval engineering but also had a significant impact on global trade and transportation.    #advantageaustria #surprisinglyingenious #austrianinventions #didyouknow

"Meet the OCEANIA, the largest crude oil tanker in service today! 🚢 - Deadweight tonnage: 441,585 metric tons - Converted ULCC turned FSO (Floating Storage and Offloading units) - Holds the top position for size among today's fleet Did you know? Larger ships like the Seawise Giant once ruled the waters, but revised regulations led to the decline of ULCCs as active tankers. Only a handful remain working as floating storage and offloading units. The OCEANIA and her sister vessels represent an impressive feat of engineering, demonstrating the capabilities of naval architecture and shipbuilding. Their scale is a testament to human ingenuity and excess. #TheOceania #LargestTanker #Shipping #Maritime #ShippingIndustry

#snsinstitutions #snsdesignthinkers #designthinking title : submarine A submarine (or sub) is a watercraft capable of independent operation underwater. It differs from a submersible, which has more limited underwater capability.[1] The term is also sometimes used historically or colloquially to refer to remotely operated vehicles and robots, as well as medium-sized or smaller vessels, such as the midget submarine and the wet sub. Submarines are referred to as boats rather than ships irrespective of their size.World War II fleet submarine, commissioned 1941–1945.The first nuclear-powered submarine USS Nautilus (SSN-571), commissioned 1954: The first ballistic missile submarine USS George Washington (SSBN-598), commissioned 1959.Although experimental submarines had been built earlier, submarine design took off during the 19th century, and they were adopted by several navies. They were first widely used during World War I (1914–1918), and are now used in many navies, large and small. Military uses include attacking enemy surface ships (merchant and military) or other submarines, and for aircraft carrier protection, blockade running, nuclear deterrence, reconnaissance, conventional land attack (for example, using a cruise missile), and covert insertion of special forces. Civilian uses include marine science, salvage, exploration, and facility inspection and maintenance. Submarines can also be modified for specialized functions such as search-and-rescue missions and undersea cable repair. They are also used in tourism and undersea archaeology. Modern deep-diving submarines derive from the bathyscaphe, which evolved from the diving bell.Most large submarines consist of a cylindrical body with hemispherical (or conical) ends and a vertical structure, usually located amidships, that houses communications and sensing devices as well as periscopes. In modern submarines, this structure is the "sail" in American usage and "fin" in European usage. A "conning tower" was a feature of earlier designs: a separate pressure hull above the main body of the boat that allowed the use of shorter periscopes. There is a propeller (or pump jet) at the rear, and various hydrodynamic control fins. Smaller, deep-diving, and specialty submarines may deviate significantly from this traditional design. Submarines dive and resurface by means of diving planes and changing the amount of water and air in ballast tanks to affect their buoyancy.Submarines encompass a wide range of types and capabilities. They include small autonomous examples using A-Navigation and one- or two-person subs that operate for a few hours, to vessels that can remain submerged for six months—such as the Russian Typhoon class, the biggest submarines ever built. Submarines can work at greater depths than are survivable or practical for human divers.[3]

Did you know?🤔 Hull design optimization is the art and science of crafting a ship's underwater body for peak performance. It's like tailoring a perfect suit for a vessel! Naval architects meticulously analyze hydrodynamic forces, considering factors like wave resistance, propeller efficiency, and stability to create a hull that glides through water with minimal effort. From sleek racing yachts to sturdy cargo ships, hull optimization plays a crucial role in determining a vessel's speed, fuel efficiency, and overall seaworthiness. 🌊🚢. #hulloptimization #navalarchitecture #shipdesign #hydrodynamics #marineengineering #shipbuilding #fuelefficiency #vesselperformance #oceanengineering #shiptechnology #shiptechnology #shipdesignprocess #vesselperformanceimprovement #hull #greenmaritime #fueloptimization #shipbuildingtechnology #marineinnovation #smec #marine #oilandgas #defense #marine #industry

🚢 Exciting News! Fincantieri Marine Group is preparing for a momentous occasion: the keel laying ceremony for the USS Constellation (FFG-62) will take place at Fincantieri Marinette Marine in Marinette, Wisconsin, on April 12th, 2024. But what exactly is a keel laying ceremony, and why is it so significant? Let's dive in! 📅 Historical Importance: Laying a ship's keel is akin to its birth date, marking the start of its construction journey. It's a tradition steeped in history and represents a crucial milestone in naval shipbuilding. ⚓ Structural Significance: The keel serves as the primary fore-and-aft part of a ship's frame, connecting the stem and stern. While traditionally extending the entire length of the vessel, modern techniques involve constructing ships in modules or blocks. 🔧 Start of Production: A keel laying ceremony typically signals the start of full production for a ship, locking in construction standards. It's a pivotal moment that showcases government support, engineering complexity, and shipbuilder efficiency. What's Next? Our hardworking team will continue to craft and deliver FFG 62 with precision and dedication, ensuring it exceeds expectations and embodies the highest standards of naval excellence. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting journey! Please note that this event is by invitation only.
