1 Introduction
1.1 Foreword
This project was assigned in conjunction with the course Kul-24.4110, Ship Project A. The
task was to develop further the design completed in the Ship Conceptual Design course by
completing an additional iteration through the ship design spiral.
One major objective is to achieve as holistic a design as possible, with an equal amount of
effort placed on each of the deliverables. This report summarizes the main challenges and
outcomes of each task, along with the methods used for their completion.
Not included in this structure were additional NAPA considerations, such as the damage
stability and lines drawing.

2 Feasibility studies
Though the focus of this project is on the technical characteristics and overall design process,
it is no less important to research the current demand and industry in order to ensure the
projects feasibility. As such, the definition of the vessels mission, research of the market,
and compilation of current ship data served as the starting point of the design process.
2.1 Mission
The vessels mission, as a cruise ship, is straightforward: to transport passengers in a
comfortable setting with overnight accommodations to the decided ports of call. As a luxury
cruise ship, however, a much higher standard will be expected in terms of comfort and
service. Finally, a core mission is to ensure an extremely high level of safety in both normal
operation conditions and emergencies. As the ship has no lifeboats, this is among the most
important considerations throughout the project.
According to SOLAS regulations, vessels without lifeboats must operate no more than 200
miles from the coast, so selecting a suitable area of operation was important. With these
limitations, a route along the coast of the United Kingdom was selected. Many UK ports are
popular among current cruise lines and there is no need to sail long distances in open water. A
typical itinerary starts from the port of Dover and visits, in order, Portsmouth, Plymouth,
Swansea, Holyhead, Douglas, and Liverpool. This results in an open-ended cruise, though it
could be customized to end at the same port of embarkation as well. Known port limitations
are listed in Table 2-1. It should be noted that exact information for the port of Douglas was
not found, though commercial vessels are offered deep-water berths in the outer harbour
while large vessels, including cruise ships, may be restricted to anchoring in the bay and using
tenders to bring passengers ashore. With such a small ship, however, this should not be an
issue. The route, along with estimated distances, is shown in Figure 2-1.

2.2 Market
Even in todays questionable economic climate, the cruise industry is expected to continue
growing in the future. All industry aspects affecting this design show strong trends over recent
years.
2.2.1 The cruise industry
The cruise industry is the fastest growing category in the leisure travel market, with an annual
growth of 7.6% since 1990 (1). Today, the industry demand outstrips supply (based on
berthing), where demand is at 103.2% of such supply (2). As for the future, the industry is
forecast to grow over the next 15 years, expanding from a worldwide base of 16 million
passengers to between 21 and 28 million in 2027 (1). These trends can be seen in current and
future new-build projects, as there are 26 planned cruise ships, carrying from 100 to over
4,000 passengers, to be built in the next two years (2).
2.2.2 The luxury cruise market
The cruise industry as a whole continues to expand and so does the luxury cruise market
specifically, though at a slightly smaller rate. The market is largely successful because of the
high interest and return rate of past cruisers, as highlighted in Figure 2-2. It has been indicated
that 87% of luxury cruisers are repeat cruisers and 43% have taken six or more cruise
vacations (1). In addition, it was found that 80% of the core market group belonged in the
5
affluent range in terms of finances, as defined by the CLIA, showing that the future luxury
market is promising. This, along with the new cruiser market, makes the luxury market a
successful yet under capacity market in regards to demand vs. berths. In fact, there are
currently only twenty ocean-going, non-expedition luxury ships in service, with only two
new-build projects planned at this time (3).

1 Parametric study
In order to identify the initial, major characteristics of the ship, data was collected for cruise
ships and luxury cruise ships specifically. With this database, a parametric study was

Greater local width in the CWL and thus greater moment of inertia of the water plane and
a higher centre of buoyancy - both effects increase KM. The heeling accelerations are
smaller and, for a cruise ship, it is one of the most important considerations.
Smaller wetted surface, lower frictional resistance, and lower steel weight
Better seakeeping ability due to a) greater reserve of buoyancy and b) no slamming effects
The ships hull includes a bulbous bow because the Froude number is over 0,23. Therefore, a
bulbous bow is recommended. Today, bulbous forms tapering sharply underneath are
preferred since these reduce slamming. Additional advantages are as follows.
The wetted surface area increasews, which affects the frictional resistance - modern bulbs
decrease resistance often by more than 20%. (1)
As Froude number is equal to 0,25, the prismatic coefficient using Troosts criteria is

As
forward perpendicular is
the longitudinal centre of buoyancy is from -1,2% to 0,8% of the overall length.

1 Resistance
Before choosing the main engine and additional machinery for project ship, a preliminary total
resistance prediction and subsequent power estimation must be performed. Various methods are
used to predict these values, as described in the subsequent sections.
1.1
ITTC-57 Method
The method for predicting the resistance of a ship defined by the International Towing Tank
Conference (ITTC-57 and ITTC-78) is one of the most straightforward procedures with defined
equations (1). By simplifying the process and removing various coefficients, the result is a basic
estimation that is generally sufficient for the preliminary design of a conventional vessel. One
advantage of this method is its simplicity. Total resistance is calculated with the following
formula:
( )
1-1
where,
total resistance coefficient
density of salt water
v ship speed [m/s]
S wetted surface area of the hull [m2].
For an initial calculation, wetted surface area is estimated using the Holtrop-Mennen method,
which is an empirical formula utilizing many vessel parameters.
(
( )
1-2
Of these, the frictional and residual are calculated while the others approximated. Frictional
resistance is calculated by using the ITTC-57 equation, which utilized the Reynolds number,
where v, L, and
are the ship speed, ship length, and kinematic viscosity of water, respectively.

where,
Reynolds number
Reynolds number is calculated as following:
1-5
where,
v ship speed [m/s]
L ship length [m]
kinematic viscosity of water [m2/s]
Following this, we calculate the residual resistance coefficient with the following estimation.
This is not prescribed by the ITTC method itself, but is an appropriate approximation (1).
[
)]

where,
Froude number
prismatic coefficient
volume-length coefficient
B ship breadth
T ship draft

The volume-length coefficient equation is a simple ratio between the volumetric displacement
and length multiple.
1-7
Remaining resistance coefficients are identified with simple approximations. The incremental
resistance coefficient
coefficients: appendage, air, and steering, are taken as suggested values given in the procedure.
1.2
Andersen-Guldhammer Method
A second method of predicting the total resistance of a ship is Andersen and Guldhammer (2),
which refines an earlier method by Guldhammer and Harvald (3). The newer procedure shares
many similarities with the ITTC method, but puts a larger focus on the smaller resistance
coefficients. It also includes several factors that make up for any deviations with the model hull,
including B/T, LCB, hull form, bulb, and appendage factors. Another advantages of this method
is that it was specifically created as a computer-oriented tool for the prediction of propulsive
power, with an emphasis on the preliminary calculation of an optimum propeller. Therefore, it
may be a more accurate prediction method for later use in propeller and machinery calculations.
5
Though the input variables are mostly the same, there are some unique definitions for this
method, specifically for the length and longitudinal center of buoyancy (LCB).

resistance coefficient differs only in syntax, where

Similarly, the second residuary resistance coefficient, G, is determined by four more defined
variables:
, of which
In turn, the first of these variables, E, depends on four more defined variables:
as well as the Froude number, meaning it changes according to the tested ship speed.

The final two residuary resistance coefficients are each represented by only one equation each.
(
))
1-23
1-24
Following the residuary resistance coefficient calculations, we begin checking for and applying
necessary corrections. The first of these is the
hull deviates from the required standard characteristics. There are two initial correction checks:
one for the beam to draft ratio and one for the LCB. If the beam to draft ratio is greater than the
standard value of [
The requirement for an LCB correction is based on a more lengthy equation, which is in turn
dependent on a predefined standard LCB value.
1-26
If the actual LCB varies from this, a correction according to the following equation must be
implemented.
[
][
1-27
Both factors in the formula must be positive for the correction to work, which for particular ship
calculations was not the case. Therefore, the correction is set to zero.
A hull form correction is not necessary for project vessel, since it has neither a pronounced U
nor V shaped fore or after body. Bulb correction is needed, however, since the standard hull is
defined as one without a bulbous bow. This correction depends on the bulb shape, as defined by
the bulb area ratio

from the table. Then was plotted the correction values and fit a power regression to the data,
yielding an interpolation equation and very high coefficient of determination (R2) value.

These values, however, are only valid for bulb area ratios greater than 1.0, which was not true for
this hull form. Therefore, a proportional reduction was needed. With this correction, the
residuary resistance coefficient can be found, as can the total resistance coefficient. The latter
utilizes suggested values for the air and steering resistance coefficients, with
and
1974 resistance method. The final step in resistance estimation is plugging all variables into
Equation (1-1). Again, the complete results are provided in Appendix 2.
1.3
In order to check hand calculations, additional resistance predictions are completed using the
software tool NavCAD. This tool is specifically for the prediction and analysis of ship speed and
power performance, focusing on hull resistance, propulsion selection, and propeller interaction
and optimization. It features an extremely user-friendly interface and is a good tool for applying
many additional estimation methods that would otherwise be difficult or prone to error. (4)
Another advantage with NavCAD is that it considers the available input parameters and hull
form and suggests which prediction methods are most suitable. Considering this, five additional
calculations were performed, according to the following methods:
Holtrop 1984
HSTS
Simple Displacement
Denmark Cargo
Degroot RB
These five methods were chosen because of their high prediction match with the input data; they
were predicted to be the most applicable in accordance to the input parameters that are currently
available for the ship. When information that is more detailed is known, the program may
recommend other resistance prediction methods, but the included information is sufficient for
preliminary resistance estimations.
As with the hand calculations, there are advantages and disadvantages for each method. The
Holtrop 1984 method is intended for commercial vessels, is formulated from a data set of 334
randomly collected models, and is regarded as a reliable method for preliminary resistance
estimations (5). This method was chosen because of its widespread use in early resistance
calculations. It is applicable for vessel speeds in the range of a Froude number between 0.100.80.
The HSTS model is derived from a total of 739 models and 10,672 data points and is a speeddependent approach (5). It has many more required input values than other methods. One
potential issue is that its database includes a very diverse set of vessels, though most errors are
encountered only at very low speeds (5). This method was the highest rated for available input
variables, though it uses a 2D method for the residual resistance calculation, which is likely not
as accurate as one utilizing the 3D form factor. It is valid for a 0.15-0.90 speed range.
The simple displacement/semi-displacement method is dependent primarily on the waterline
length and volumetric displacement, and therefore the vessels volume coefficient (5). It is useful
only for very early stage analysis and is derived from a basic power demand relationship. It was
chosen because of its high rating, though it is similar to the ITTC method in that it features many
simplifications. It can be used for Froude numbers between 0.0-0.40.
The Denmark Cargo method is a numerical implementation method using the Guldhammer
procedure (5). Though its focus is on cargo vessels, it is again a very early stage prediction
10
method that can be used for generic hulls such as this. It is meant for general purpose early
design estimations only, which is suitable for the current purposes. It does include analysis for
ships with a bulbous bow. It was chosen as a prediction method specifically because of its tie to
the Andersen-Guldhammer procedures, which were followed in the hand calculations. Its speed
range correlates to a Froude number of 0.05-0.33, which is at the limit of the selected speed.
Therefore, it will rely on extrapolation at the extremes.
The final method, DeGroot RB, is based on various model test series, based on a numerical
representation of the published graphical form resistance curves (5). It can be used at preliminary
design stages for general hull types, though it also puts emphasis on hard-chine vessels and
vessels with pronounced round bilges. It is applicable for Froude values between 0.30 and 1.05,
again meaning extrapolation will again be used for the lower speeds.
The input parameters used for all methods, showing also NavCADs interface, are given in
Appendix 3, along with the output data in Appendix 4, for each method.

This graph shows that the methods are, as a whole in line, though there are clearly outliers,
specifically the ITTC, Denmark Cargo, and DeGroot methods.
The ITTC method is predictably high, as it does not include correction reductions for important
properties such as the bulbous bow. As one of the most basic numerical prediction methods, it is
unlikely to compare as favourably as those with more considerations are. Therefore, it was
removed from the final prediction analysis.
The Denmark Cargo method was chosen based on its dependence on the Andersen resistance
procedures, though its speed range is limiting and it must rely on extrapolation at some of the
speeds for this vessel. It is clear that its focus on cargo ships results in comparison differences
and it is thus neglected from this point on as well.
The DeGroot method seems to focus too heavily on more unique hull shapes, in contrast to the
generic shape chosen for the cruise ship. Even though it was highly rated by the NavCAD
software, it is also intended for higher Froude numbers, meaning the output is not accurate at our
12
speeds, as the other methods have direct computations as opposed to extrapolations. With this
method eliminated, four remaining methods give very comparable results, one from hand
calculations and three from the software. The final resistance graph is given in Figure 1-4.

In summary, a large number of prediction methods were chosen in order to give as holistic an
initial resistance estimation as possible. Though no method is perfectly accurate at such an early
design stage, comparing many methods will give more credibility to consistent results, which is
warranted for important characteristics like the ships resistance, as this will greatly influence the
vessels design, equipment selection, and general characteristics. The final four predictions show
very strong correlations with one another, meaning the resistance prediction should be
reasonable. Though the deliverable only requested basic numerical calculations such as the ITTC
or Holtrop methods, taking the time to compare such approaches with an industry-approved
software such as NavCAD can only improve the quality of the prediction.

With the total resistance estimates, the power needed to power the ship in calm seas, or the
effective power, was calculated.

Speed [kn]

An initial design speed of 17 [kn] was chosen in accordance with the selected itinerary around
the English coast. In order to allow for flexibility in future deployment, resistance values are
taken at a more conservative level, corresponding to a maximum speed of 20 [kn]. This will
allow the vessel to complete an array of itineraries without needing to adjust port times in order
to compensate for an underpowered arrangement.
Since the methods agree overall, the average value at the maximum speed was taken as final
power prediction to be used in the machinery selection process. Each method includes a large
preliminary design margin, so this result should be sufficiently conservative. Table 1-2 shows the
calculated power in [kW] for the various prediction methods and speeds. As a summary, the
required effective power can be taken as 7839 [kW].

2 Propulsion
2.1
Introduction
The ship has two controllable pitch propellers (CP-propeller). The propeller is a traditional four
bladed propeller with revolutions of 180 revolutions per minute, which is based on the chosen
electrical motors. A CP-propeller was chosen because it gives the highest propulsive efficiency
over a broad range of speeds and load conditions and it improves maneuverability when
compared to fixed pitch propellers (FP-propeller), which is mainly used on bulkers and tankers
due to the little need for maneuverability. The main advantage of a CP-propeller is fine thrust
control when maneuvering, which can be achieved without necessarily the need to accelerate and
decelerate the propulsion machinery. Fine control of thrust is particular in certain cases, for
example, in dynamic positioning situations or where frequent berthing maneuvers are required
(6). There, it is also possible to use azimuth thrusters, but due to the fact that vessel has quite
small draft, it is not reasonable to use those, as the propeller diameter would be small and it
would not be as efficient.
2.2
Optimization of propulsion
The propeller diameter is roughly estimated based on (7), where it is said that the clearance
between blade tips and hull plating should be 25-30 per cent of diameter. Therefore, it is
estimated that the propeller diameter D is 70% of the draft. Thus, the propeller diameter is
calculated as the following:
[m]

For finding the operational point for the propeller, the Wageningen B-series graphs are used. For
that, several parameters should be first calculated. Using simplified equations, the wake fraction
can be calculated as following:

And the thrust reduction coefficient can be obtained from:

homogenous wake field with no hull in front of it. The propeller efficiency depends mostly on
the speed of advance, thrust force, rate of revolution, diameter, and design of the propeller. There
are methods to approximately get open water efficiency but for traditional shaft propulsion
systems, the number can be close to 0,7. It is estimated that it is for this ship 0,69. (8). This
estimation is also in a good agreement with the previously found efficiency based on
Wageningen B-series.

The total propulsion efficiency is taken into account in the engine selection process.

2.4
Cavitation
Cavitation occurs when the local absolute pressure is less than the local vapor pressure for the
fluid medium. The critical measurement for cavitation performance is the cavitation inception
point, which is the conditions, i.e. cavitation number, for which cavitation is first observed
anywhere on the propeller. Cavitation will harm propeller blades, so corrosion occurs and also,
cavitation stars causing vibration and noise. Therefore, it is necessary to check the cavitation
limit to be sure that chosen propeller will not start to cavitate.
The cavitation number can be calculated by equation:
(

According to Equation 2-23, the cavitation number equals 3,42 and, comparing it to the
cavitation graph (see Figure 2-2), it can be seen that cavitation will not occur. (7)

3 Machinery
3.1
Selecting machinery
3.1.1 Introduction
The space for engines and auxiliary systems is limited and the diesel generators are chosen not to
spend space for extra generators to produce electricity. The advantage of diesel generators is also
the freedom to locate heavy main machines, because there is a pool in the aft area, the engines
should be more in the fore, meaning that, if the shaft is sprightly attached to engine, the shaft line
is long and may cause extra vibrations and noise, which may in turn cause inconveniences for
passengers. Therefore, the propellers are powered by electric engines and electricity is produced
by diesel generators.
22
Electricity is also needed for the vessels other systems, therefore, an additional 2500 [kW] is
added to power in the first approximation. Additionally, the diesel engine minimum fuel
consumption per kilowatt is in the range of 85 90% of the maximum output and this is taken
into account in selection process.
Finally, the losses in electric circuit are considered and the engine output and needed power
should have about 5% additional cap.
Two or three generators are chosen because it makes maintenance more flexible and adds safety
in case of an accident and helps to fulfil Safe Return to Port regulations. Four or more engines
are not suitable because the total area for machinery is limited. Combinations of different
generating sets are not used in order to be able to have engine maintenance onboard without
docking the ship.

From Table 3-1, three Wrtsil 16V32 generator sets are chosen because it fulfils the power
requirements and also is light and small enough for the ship, as the engine room height is 7 [m]
and width 6 [m]. In that case, two engines are used to produce electric energy and the third is in
back-up. The same set of Wrtsil 12V38 engines are not sufficient because they are bigger and
weight more, with an increased weight of about 32%. Using the two Wrtisl 16V38 set does not
fulfil the power requirement and using three is not valid regarding weight. Weight is one of the
main points to be concerned in because of the aim to keep the ships design draft and from Ship
Conceptual design it is known that ship weight is a big concern. Three Rolls Royce B32:40V12
sets are 15% lighter and smaller than Wrtsil 16V32 but fulfils the power need precisely. Using
four Catepillar C280-28 generation sets will take too much deck space and is 10% heavier.

Electric balance
To be able to choose suitable engines and engine setup, the total electrical power consumption
must be estimated. Electricity is consumed by propulsion electrical motors, ventilation, heating,
and other auxiliary systems. The electricity consumption needs to be calculated for different
operating situations, as the profile of electricity consumption varies in different situations. The
operating situations are open water, manoeuvring, in harbour, at rest, and emergency. A
summary of the electrical balance for the selected engine is provided in Appendix 5.

1 Overview
The general arrangement is a time consuming portion of the design due to the inherent
difficulties of arranging a passenger vessel. As a cruise ship, the major considerations are
safety and passenger comfort and the layout of the ship reflects a combined approach to each
topic. Generally, the ship is segmented into different areas, with accommodation spaces
forward and public and lifesaving spaces aft. This is in line with many of the luxury, smallscale cruise ships in service today. With this layout, the staterooms are subject to much less
noise and vibration, the balconies are maximized, and the passenger and service flow are
simple. The main reason, however, is due to the vessels unconventional lifesaving layout.
The starting point for the general arrangement is the initial NAPA model that reflects the
vessels initial design constraints and parametric study. With the basic lines, the
superstructure can be designed to house the expected 150 passengers and 50 crewmembers in
comfort. The challenge, however, is including the required and expected spaces into the
necessary structural arrangement, which is already designed at a preliminary level. This is
particularly true for the pillars that are set throughout the ship.
One important reference in the arrangement is past and present luxury ship designs. With
these in mind, strong aspects of some vessels can be included while avoiding the negative
aspects of others. This is especially helpful for the public arrangement layouts at this stage of
design. Studied ships include those of Azamara Club Cruises, Ponant Cruise Line, Silver Seas
Cruises, and Seabourn Cruises, all of which belong in the luxury market.
Finally, the aesthetics of the ship were taken into account throughout the general arrangement
process. Key aesthetic points of todays cruise ships include the profile, bow, stern, funnel,
color scheme, and portlight and window shape and arrangement, among others. The
preliminary outboard profile of this vessel is shown in the appendix.
2 Regulatory requirements
The ship is designed using DNV classification rules (1). This, along with the regulations set
by the International Convention for Safety of Life at Sea (2), serves as the primary limiter of
arrangement design. The SOLAS regulations are important for fire protection, evacuation, and
general safety considerations, while the DNV rules give a broader idea of general
requirements to be considered. Though not the governing body for this ship, the ABS rules for
Crew Habitability on Ships (3) and Passenger Comfort on Ships (4) also serve as a checking
2
point for dimensional aspects, as they include a checklist of minimum dimensions. At this
level of design, a conservative approach to such dimensioning aspects will ensure a feasible
design that will not need to be altered at a later design stage.
3 Safety considerations
At the preliminary design stage, the major safety considerations taken into account are
subdivision requirements, fire protection, and evacuation procedures, all of which are crucial
to ensure the safety of those onboard.
passengers from one side of the vessel in case of severe listing. Not only does this provide a
redundancy of over three times the total passengers and crew, but the fact that the systems are
located on different decks makes it safer than the traditional setup.
In addition, two traditional, davit-launch life raft stations are included on deck 4. Each station
has storage space for two compact Viking davit-launched, self-righting life rafts, along with a
davit. With this arrangement, the life raft is connected to the davit and then inflated at the
deck level, enabling passengers to board directly from the deck (7). Each raft has a 39 person
capacity, meaning, with two at each station, a total of 156 passengers can be evacuated by
more traditional means. This is important for passengers with disabilities, elderly, or others
who are incapable of safely evacuating the ship via MES. The fact that the traditional life rafts
are located on the middle of the three evacuation decks is also conducive to the evacuation
procedure, as it is central and therefore more accessible to passengers with disabilities.
In case of emergency, todays rules require all persons to report first to an assembly station
before proceeding, if necessary, to an evacuation station (5). By placing all six stations
directly adjacent to the three assembly stations (the main dining room, theatre, and casual
restaurant), this process is greatly streamlined, allowing for a more orderly and faster
evacuation process. The assembly stations may either be on deck or in public spaces and must
have an area of at least 0.35 [m2] per person to be evacuated (5), which is fulfilled by each of
the three chosen locations.
In comparison to modern lifeboats, the evacuation systems are fully inflatable and operational
within 90 seconds of deployment and are fully reversible, meaning they will inflate upright
every time. The chutes are also fully enclosed, ensuring no passenger is exposed to the
elements at any time. As the vessel has no permanent openings within the hull or
superstructure to prevent stress concentration in openings and ease the production process, the
systems are accessible through large, interior evacuation rooms and deployed after opening
weather tight doors. The evacuation arrangement is shown in the appendix of this report.
In summary, the selected evacuation methods have multiple advantages over traditional
lifeboats. By arranging all accommodations forward, unlike most current cruise ships, three
separate stations, per side, can offer a faster and more accessible evacuation when compared
to lifeboats located on one deck.
4 Passenger comfort
When completing the general arrangement, focus on passenger comfort is second only to
safety considerations. As a luxury cruise ship, it is extremely important that passenger
staterooms and public spaces reflect a high level of passenger comfort to compete with
todays luxury ships.
4.1 Staterooms
All passenger staterooms feature not only outside views, but private balconies as well. All
cabins are sized with the high standard of luxury design taken into account, and the layouts,
sizing, and spacing are all in line with comparable vessels. There are also wheelchair
accessible cabins onboard, sized with extra space for the navigation of wheelchairs and
featuring appropriate head arrangements. The six accessible cabins make up nearly 8% of the
total staterooms, which is well above the Passenger Vessel Accessibility Guidelines (PVAG),
which states that 2% of all cabins must be accessible. A breakdown of available passenger
staterooms is listed below, as well as subsequent sample plans in Figure 4-1.
These staterooms compare very favourably to the current norm. Todays standard balcony
stateroom averages 20 [m2] while suites are generally around 33 [m2] (8).
As with cabins, additional crew spaces are included to comply with the regulations. These
include the obligatory messes for general crewmembers and officers, gym, laundry room, and
recreation facility. In addition, practical spaces that are necessary for a successful working
order of the ship are taken into account. Examples of these include multiple office spaces as
well as a conference room for the navigating officers.
The space allotted for these provisions is more than adequate for these estimations. It is
important to include a large margin to allow for the possibility of expanding itinerary options
in the future, as some may last more than seven days.
The bridge is located on the second highest deck and includes the central safety control center
that is required by SOLAS. This permanently manned station contains control panels for the
various systems onboard. These include the fire detection and alarm systems, sprinkler
systems, fire and watertight doors, ventilation fans, general alarm systems, communication
systems, and the public address system (9).
6 Material access
Another functional consideration is the access and flow of various materials. In this regard,
space has been allocated in both the arrangement and profile views for the needed stations and
doors. Passenger embarkation can be accomplished with both the general gangway access and
passenger tender stations near the waterline. Even though this ship has a low draft, it is
important to include tendering capabilities for future deployment flexibility. Another
watertight door leads to a bunker station, with one station port and one starboard to allow
flexibility when docking.
Additional doors are identified for material handling. The forward is dedicated to luggage
access and egress and is situated near the luggage handling room. This is an important feature
for cruise ships, which must handle a large amount of luggage on the embarkation and
debarkation days. Finally, the provision access doors are located aft of the bunker stations and
lead directly to two of the provision storage rooms. All doors from the deck to superstructure
are weather tight while the closures below the bulkhead deck are watertight.
7 Tank arrangement
7.1 Fuel tanks
The sizes of fuel tanks are calculated based on the fuel consumption of all engines and taking
into account mission of the ship. Therefore, the fuel tanks must have enough capacity to
ensure a sufficient period of independency on sea. The vessel visits during the cruise every
day one port; therefore, each of storage tanks for HFO must be able to hold fuel for at least
one day. In addition to the storage tanks, there are also two settling tanks, each capable of
providing fuel for 24 hours operation at maximum fuel consumption. This time will be
sufficient for settling (water and sediment separation). There are also day tanks, each which
holds fuel for 8 hours of sailing at full power. As the fuel consumption for all engines is
[m3/h] which was calculated during Ship Machinery course, then tank capacities are
calculated according to this and the results can be seen in Table 7-1.

Black and gray water holding tank capacities are calculated based on average generated
sewage and grey water per person in day. The average black water generated per person in
9
one day is approximately 32 liters per person (11). The grey wastewater generated per person
in one day is approximately 255 liters per person (12). Therefore, black water holding tank
capacity should be 4864 liters per vessel and the designed tank capacity is 10 [m3].
Grey wastewater holding tank capacity should be 38 760 liters per vessel and the designed
tank capacity is 78 [m3]. These tank sizes are made twice a bigger, because if something
happens with treatment plant, then there is not an issue to hold all the black and grey
wastewater during trip between two ports.
For a waste treatment plant is chosen EVAC advanced membrane bio-reactor (MBR)
treatment plant, which will treat grey and black water as well dry waste and food waste. A
membrane bioreactor is used to filter grey and black water so, that clean water is separated
from the biomass by membrane filtration. In choosing the treatment plant it is considered that
it will be capable to treat as much water as the person generates per one day.
8 Machinery arrangement
In all type of the ships, the machinery area is tried to keep as small as possible, to have more
space for passenger or cargo, the payload. This fact makes machinery area arrangement
significantly more complicated than others, as it has to fit a lot of equipment. The project ship
is designed according to DNV rules and the requirements pointed out in ( (13), Section 3) are
followed. For safety reasons are followed the SOLAS rules (14).
Main engine rooms are all separated by longitudinal bulkheads, to ensure the ship
performance in case of emergency. The main engines rooms are located in the middle of
the ship, because the weight of the engines will cause bigger trim angle when located in
aft or fore of ship.
10
Propulsion motors are located as stern as possible to decrease the shaft length; considered
as one of the main sources of vibration in ship, which are tried to keep as low as possible
in passenger ships.
Main drive and switchboard rooms should be located as close as possible to generators, as
the cables between those three are the biggest and with highest voltages and therefore
tried to keep short.
Water treatment and heating are placed close to each other to limit the piping length,
which lowers the accident and failure possibilities and gives extra space.
Fuel separating and feeding unit are placed as close to engines as possible to decrease
piping length
Thruster room should be separated from other areas as it contains big drive unit with high
voltage and to lower the chance of getting in case of accident.

Notations
1.1
Framing system
A longitudinal framing system is chosen for the ship because of its lower weight compared to
transverse and mixed framing systems. Additionally, with more longitudinal stiffeners, the
shell and deck plating are reinforced more effectively in comparison to transverse framing,
allowing resistance of longitudinal compressive stresses. This is important since cruise ships
are usually with relatively high L/B ratios, meaning longitudinal stresses are the main issues
(1).
1.2
Web frame
The web frame spacing is chosen by considering the fact that cabins should be fitted between
web frames. As such, a web frame spacing of 3m is chosen for the final design. (2)
1.3
For passenger vessels and cargo ships other than tankers, a double bottom shall be fitted,
extending from the collision bulkhead to the afterpeak bulkhead, as far as is practicable and
compatible with the design and proper working of the ship ( (3), Section 6). The minimum
height of the double bottom is calculated as follows:
[mm]
1.4
1-1
Side girder
Side girders shall normally be fitted so that the distance between the side girders and the
center girder or margin plate or between the side girders themselves does not exceed 5 m. In
the engine room, one side girder is to be fitted outside the engine seating girders in all cases
( (3), Section 6).
1.5
Floors
The floor spacing is normally not to be greater than 3,6 m. In way of deep tanks with heights
exceeding 0,7 times the distance between the inner bottom and the main deck, the floor
spacing is normally not to exceed 2,5 m. In the engine room, floors shall be fitted at every
second side frame. Bracket floors shall be fitted at intermediate frames, extending to the first
ordinary side girder outside the engine seating. For thrust bearings and below pillars,
additional strengthening shall be provided ( (3), Section 6). Floors are fitted equally with web
frames and the floor spacing is 3 m.
1.6
Longitudinals
All longitudinals (bottom, inner bottom, and deck) are fitted with spacing of 600 mm or as
near it as possible. The stiffener span must be chosen in accordance to the following
considerations:
1.7
Pillars
The main issue with pillar location is cabin arrangement, as they must fit between pillars or
between a pillar and side. Pillars should be connected with transverse deck girders and deck
girders at the strongest point, therefore, pillars should be located at the crossing points of deck
girders. Pillars should be in one line as much as possible to avoid shear force. The same
reason is taken into account by locating pillars on bulkheads.
1.8
Brackets
way of the connection is not reduced to a value less than required for the stiffener. If the
flange transition between the stiffener and an integral bracket is knuckled, the flange shall be
effectively supported in way of the knuckle. (3)
1.8.2 End connections of girders
Normally, ends of single girders or connections between girders forming ring systems shall be
provided with brackets. Brackets are generally to be made with a radius or be well-rounded at
their toes. The free edge of the brackets shall be arranged with a flange or edge stiffener. The
thickness of brackets on girders shall not be less than that of the girder web plate. Where
flanges are continuous, there shall be a smooth taper between bracket flange and girder face
plate. If the flange is discontinuous, the face plate of the girder shall extend well beyond the
toe of the bracket. (3)
Between supporting plates on the centre girder, docking brackets shall be fitted. Alternative
arrangements of supporting plates and docking brackets require special consideration of the
local buckling strength of the centre girder/duct keel and local strength of the docking
longitudinal that is subject to the forces from docking blocks. (3)
1.9
Openings
Openings may be accepted in watertight bulkheads, except in the part of the collision
bulkhead which is situated below the freeboard deck. Openings situated below the freeboard
deck which are intended for use when the ship is at sea, shall have watertight doors which
shall be closable from the freeboard deck or an alternative place above the deck. The
operating device shall be well protected and accessible. Openings in the collision bulkhead
above the freeboard deck shall have weather tight doors or an equivalent arrangement. The
number of openings in the bulkhead shall be reduced to the minimum compatible with the
design and normal operation of the ship.
No door, manhole, or ventilation duct or any other opening will be accepted in the collision
bulkhead below the freeboard deck. The collision bulkhead may, however, be pierced by
necessary pipes to deal with fluids in the forepeak tank, provided the pipes are fitted with
valves capable of being operated from above the freeboard deck.
Openings in the side shell, longitudinal bulkheads, and longitudinal girders shall be located
not less than twice the opening breadth below the strength deck or the termination of a
rounded deck corner. Small openings are generally to be kept well clear of other openings in
longitudinal strength members. Edges of small unreinforced openings shall be located at a
6
transverse distance not less than four times the opening breadth from the edge of any other
opening.
Smaller openings (manholes, lightening holes, and single scallops in way of seams, etc.) do
not need to be deducted provided the sum of their breadths or shadow area breadths in one
transverse section does not reduce the section modulus at the deck or bottom by more than
3%. In addition, the height of lightening holes, draining holes, and single scallops in
longitudinals or longitudinal girders must not exceed 25% of the web depth and a maximum
75mm is imposed for scallops.
In the strength deck and outer bottom within 0,6 L amidships, circular openings with a
diameter equal to or greater than 0,325 m shall have edge reinforcement. The cross-sectional
area of edge reinforcements shall not be less than the following:
[cm2]
1-2
Where,
- diameter of opening in [m],
The reinforcement is normally to be a vertical ring welded to the plate edge. Alternative
arrangements may be accepted but the distance from plating edge to reinforcement is in no
case to exceed 0,05 b.
In areas specified in previously elliptical openings with a breadth greater than 0,5 m, edge
reinforcement must be included if their length/breadth ratio is less than 2. The reinforcement
shall also be required in the strength deck and outer bottom for circular openings, taking b as
the breadth of the opening. For corners of circular shape the radius shall not be less than:
[cm]
1-3
Where,
- breadth of opening
For streamlining, shape edge reinforcement will generally not be required; edges of openings
shall be smooth. Machine flame cut openings with smooth edges may be accepted.
Holes in girders will generally be accepted provided the shear stress level is acceptable and
the buckling strength is sufficient. Holes shall be kept well clear of end of brackets and
locations where shear stresses are high.
a collision bulkhead
According to (3) Section 3, Table A1, there must be 6 bulkheads. The minimum distance xc
from the fore perpendicular PF to the collision bulkhead is calculated with the following
equation (3):
[m]
1-4
The after peak bulkhead is placed approximately 18 m from the aft perpendicular to the
location where the double bottom and rising stern part meets. There is also a longitudinal
bulkhead between two engines and a bulkhead to allocate the switchboard. The location of
other bulkheads is shown in Appendix 2-Bulkhead locations.
2 Relevant loads
According to the project ship, there are several loads acting on its design lifetime of 20 years,
which is an assumed value at this stage. Loads on ship structures can be divided into the
following categories:
static loads (e.g., still water bending moments)
low-frequency (dynamic) loads (e.g., wave-induced hull pressure variations)
high-frequency (dynamic) loads (e.g., wave-induced loads from primary short waves)
impact loads(e.g., collision, slamming)
The load calculation results are presented in
Table 2-1.

3 Material selection
Material selection is done according to DNV classification rules ( (3) , Section 2). The most
cost efficient for the shipyard is to use as few different materials as possible. In this project,
the main materials are normal strength steel (yield strength 235 [N/mm2]) and high strength
steel (yield strength 355 [N/mm2]). The normal strength steel is used in the hull structure and
high strength steel is used in the superstructure. There is no point to use high strength steel in
the hull structure because, due to the huge amount of welding, HSS loses its properties, which
change basically to the same as normal strength steel. Also, HSS is more sensitive to welding
fractures than normal strength steel. High strength steel is used in the superstructure in order
to decrease the structure weight. The critical factors for the superstructure are buckling and
vibrations. When using HSS, as the plate thicknesses are much smaller, the most bucklingcritical locations, higher decks, should have extra attention. The materials are divided into the
grades as following:
In various parts of the structure, different material grades are used. These grades and classes
are given in DNV tables (Appendix 5), which describes which grade/class should be used in
various parts. The materials ascribed to the project ships main frame structural elements are
given in Table 3-1.

In this case, there is a calculated bottom plate coupled with stiffener section modulus. Plate
breadth is taken as the same as the spacing between stiffeners. In deck girder calculations,
there an effective breadth was used, which was calculated according to the lecture notes.
The height of the plate is the plate thickness and for the stiffeners the height is their length.
The neutral axis is the distance from the center of gravity to the main coordinate axis and, if
considering the plate, the neutral axis is in the middle of plate thickness. The plate area is
calculated as the following:

Bending stress
External moments acting on the hull are caused by waves and also by still water. These
moments are obtained by using classification society rules in Chapter 2.2, as presented in
Table 2-1. The total moments values are:
Sagging:
[kNm]
Hogging:
[kNm]
Whilst the hogging and sagging moments absolute values are equal, the calculations can be
done by using only one, of which the hogging moment is chosen because, according to
NAPA, the ship operates in hogging conditions.
As the project ship is a passenger ship, the superstructure takes some of the bending moment
and therefore the stress distribution cannot be calculated using basic beam theory. In this
work, stress distribution in the main frame is obtained using Bleich approach (5).
In the Bleich approach, the hull and superstructure are taken as two independent beams. In
calculations, needed parameters are both areas, respective neutral axes, and and second
moments of area around these axes. Calculations are done using Tables 1 and 2 (presented in
Appendix 7).

distribution in hogging is presented in Figure 6-1 and the Construct results for hogging can be
seen in Figure 6-2. The bending moment distribution in hogging is presented in Figure 6-3
and the Construct results for hogging can be seen in Figure 6-4.

From Figure 6-1 and Figure 6-3, it can be seen that the ships superstructure is not fully
effective, which means that most of the loads are carried by the hull. The difference in the
Bleich method and Construct is well seen and the Construct results are declared more reliable,
as it uses coupled beam theory, which is a development of the Blecih method. The Bleich
method also shows the change of stress due to different hull and superstructure stiffness, as
the ship is not behaving as a beam. Construct results are more reliable also because of the
lower chance of error, as the modelling error probability is lower compared to analytical
calculation.
As mentioned previously, the ship is operating in hogging condition and, in that case, the
highest bending stresses occur in the bottom and in the strength deck. The maximum
compression stress is at the bottom with a value of 33,2 MPa. The stress reaches 0 around 3,2
m. The tensile stress reaches its maximum around 10,8 m, the location of strength deck, where
stress is 31,1 MPa. After that, stress starts to decrease and increases near the highest deck and
at top deck, the stress is 26,4 MPa.
The distribution in sagging is different, but the stresses in the bottom and top deck are the
same while the difference is near the strength deck where the stress is 10,1 MPa, the higher
stress is at deck 2, 14,4 MPa, but is smaller compared to hogging.

Shear stress
Shear stress distribution is done by using the DNV classification society rules (3).
Firstly, the still water and wave induced shear forces are calculated, which is presented in
Chapter 2.2.

Shear stresses are calculated for each plate according to Equation 6-14. The calculations are
also done with Construct for comparison and results can been seen in Figure 6-6 and the shear

To the Figure 6-5 is plotted the vertical shear stress distribution. Only vertical shear stresses
are calculated, as they are much bigger when compared to the deck plating shear stresses. As
seen from Figure 6-5, shear stresses occurs as known from basic beam theory, which means,
in the bottom and top deck, the stresses are 0 and the highest stress occurs at neutral axis. Big
differences between Construct and DNV results are caused by the simplification of DNV rules
and also the aspect that acceptance of classification society should provide a quality of
structure that increases the values, as it assures a little over-dimensioned structure. The shear
stress distribution according to basic beam theory is a smooth curve, but as seen in Figure 6-5,
the distribution according to Construct is not. The non-smooth distribution is related to large
window openings in superstructure, which increases the shear stresses significantly and is
considered as one of the most challenging problems in modern cruise ships.
From DNV rules, it is known that the maximum allowed shear stress is
range where the maximum shear stress occurs,
[MPa]. In the
stress is 110 [MPa]. The maximum shear stress is 46,3 [MPa], which means that the safety
factor taking only shear force into account is:
6-15
The safety factor shows that the shear stresses which occur in the side shells are in the
allowable range.
6.3
In the Chapter 4, the minimum structural element dimensions were calculated and these were
used in Construct calculations, as the stresses in structure was too high, the dimensions were
changed to reach optimal stress range. The structural elements must be calculated to local
strengths using given pressures (see Chapter 2). The response to local loading is calculated as
following:
From DNV (3), the section modulus of the longitudinals is calculated as the following:

Web frames
The ships main frame web-frames are divided into to two parts the first is from the tank top
to Deck 2 and second part is from Deck 2 to the top deck.
Firstly, the web frames are calculated using DNV classification society rules ( (3), Section 7
C400).
The section modulus requirement is given by:
7-1
[cm3]
[m]
[m]
length of the frame. This is first used as the length from the tank top to Deck 2 and the second
distance is from Deck 2 to the top deck. As classification society rules give the minimum
value of the section modulus, the section modulus calculated by analytical beam theory must
be higher than section modulus calculated according to DNV rules:
[cm3]
[cm3]
. Critical buckling stresses are calculated for every deck and, in this estimation,
the side shell buckling and double bottom longitudinal girder buckling are not calculated.
Results are presented in Table 8-1. In locations where buckling stress varies, the smallest
value is taken because it defines the critical stress. All calculation tables are presented in
Appendix 6.

The usage factor is presented in Table 8-1 and is calculated as:

As seen from the usage factors, the buckling risk in the structure is very low; the acting
bending and shear stress is around 3 times smaller in critical areas than critical buckling
stress.
9 Ultimate strength
Ultimate strength is calculated using Construct and first fibre criterion. Results are shown in
Figure 9-1.
9.1
The first fibre yield criterion means that elastic moment of structure is calculated according to
material yield stress and the criterion is fulfilled when the moment does not exceed the design
moment. The most critical locations for yielding are top deck in case of hogging and bottom
in case of sagging. First fibre criterion is calculated with the following:
[Nm]
9-1
Where,
- elastic section modulus
First fibre yield moment in top:
First fibre yield moment in bottom:
[MNm]
[MNm]
The moments calculated using Equation 9-1 are significantly higher compared to the design
moment, which is calculated according to DNV (see Chapter 2.2), therefore, it can be said that
the yielding criterion is fulfilled.
34
9.2
First fibre buckling criterion means that elastic moment of structure is calculated according to
structure critical buckling stress and the criterion is fulfilled when the moment does not
exceed the design moment. The most critical locations for yielding are the top deck in case of
sagging and bottom in case of hogging. The critical buckling stresses are presented in Table
8-1. First fibre buckling criterion is calculated with the equation:
9-2
[Nm]
Where,
- elastic section modulus
First fibre yield moment in top:
[MNm]
[MNm]
The moments calculated using Equation 9-2 are significantly higher compared to design
moment, which is calculated according to DNV (see Chapter 2.2) and it can therefore be said
that the buckling criterion is fulfilled.

Design moment

As seen in Figure 9-1, the Construct ultimate strength calculation results exceed the design
moment. The margin between the maximum moment and design moment is sufficient to
provide structural reliability.
The maximum moment that the structure can respond to is calculated with Construct and is
around two times lower compared to first fibre criterions. The reason for this difference may
be errors in modelling or errors in calculation tables. Construct results are more reliable
35
because they take into consideration the fact that the minimum thickness and section modulus
requirements has to be fulfilled, which lowers the section modulus for first fibre criterions.

The frequency range is the biggest on the strength deck and the lowest on deck as can be seen
in Table 10-1. There will be no threat of resonance due to the fact that possible locations for
that are not near each other and, for example, this particular ship frequency caused by
machinery and shaft are relatively smaller than the structure frequency. They fall within a
range of 2 -17 Hz.

11 Torsion problems
Torsion is not overly severe in passenger ships, as these do not have large opening in the
deck, unlike container ships. Still, torsion is an issue which has to be considered in the design
stage. In this particular ship, the following things can be done to prevent torsion:
add material to the places where torsion effect can be most effectively prevented, in the
corners of superstructure and hull
12 Vibratory levels
The most common sources of vibration excitation are propellers and main machinery. All
vibration is undesirable. It can be unpleasant for people on board and can be harmful to
equipment. It must be reduced as much as possible but it cannot be entirely eliminated.
Vibrations may occur due to various excitations:
Wave-induced
Vertical bending
Horizontal bending
Torsion
Longitudinal
Local vibrations:
Superstructure
Supporting machinery with special foundations. This is especially important for main
engines and other large equipment. The foundation will dampen the vibrations created by
machinery.
One of the main vibration producers is also the cavitation effect caused by the propeller,
therefore, the propeller has to be designed properly and good flow has to be ensured to
prevent vibrations.
Although this particular ship does not have long shaft line, it should still be supported
correctly with bearing to decrease vibrations.
13
Fatigue analysis
At this stage, it is assumed that the operating time of this particular ship is 20 years and the
most critical structure for fatigue would be a welded joint of the bottom plate under maximum
compression stress if considering the hogging condition. At this design stage, the fatigue
analysis is made for one part of the structure only, where normal stress is largest. The
maximum normal stress caused by bending for the bottom is 33,2 MPa.
Fatigue is calculated according to DNV rules and defined by applying Weibull distribution for
the different load conditions and a one slope S-N curve is used. The fatigue damage is given
by:
13-1
where
- total number load condition considered,
- fraction of design life in load condition,
- design life of a ship in seconds,
- Weibull stress range shape distribution parameter for load condition n,
- Weibull stress range scale distribution parameter for load condition n,
- long term average response zero-crossing frequency,
- S-N fatigue parameter,
(
) - gamma function,
38
[s]
The Weibull scale parameter is defined from the stress range level
(
, as
13-3
where
is stress range for bottom plating which is most critical and calculated as following:
(
[MPa]
- number of cycles over time period for which the stress range level
13-4
, is
defined ,
- Weibull stress range shape distribution parameter for load condition n can be calculated
as following:
( )
13-5
In simplified fatigue calculations, the zero value-crossing frequency may be taken as:

( )
rulebook. [ (6), Table G-1]. In this case the gamma value is:
(
13-7
where
- S-N fatigue parameter,
Another fatigue parameter from the S-N curve is air condition and for the welded joint is
taken from Table 13-1.
39
According to the results, the fatigue criterion is fulfilled if considering DNV rules, withs D<1.
This means that the fatigue resistance of the bottom plating is sufficient.

The steel weight is taken directly from the NAPA steel model, as this will give a more
accurate value than the suggested empirical formula for initial steel weight estimation.
Therefore, the steel weight is taken as 2062 [t]. The preliminary machinery weight, without
considering the actual equipment specifications, can be estimated with the following equation,
where the needed power is taken as 12,248 kW, as specified in the machinery section of this
project.
1-2
With the stated power, the machinery weight totals at 1060 [t]. Next, the outfitting weight is
estimated as a function of a specified factor and the converted volume, as defined below.
1-3
With the basic dimensions of the vessel and a K value of 0.036, as prescribed by the
reference, the total outfitting weight is estimated at 1586 [t]. Finally, the interior weight is
again based on a defined coefficient, along with the interior area of the vessel. In this case, the
coefficient is taken at
, or the given value for small and medium sized ships. The
interior weight calculation can therefore be completed according to the equation below.
1-4
This yields an initial interior weight of 562 [t]. With these four weight components, the total
lightship weight is found to be 5268 [t].

These eight groups represent the projected ship design in the predefined Condition A
(lightship with margins) while an additional group, group F, is added for estimating weights
in Condition D (departure full load) (3). Initially, only the lightship condition will be
estimated. Since the vessel in question is a passenger vessel without armament, group 700
will be neglected from this point on.
2.2 Methodology
The lightship weight estimate can be difficult to attain at such an early design stage, as the
specifications of many features, and thus their respective weights, are not yet known. As such,
a basic bottom-up factoring method was used, where identified unit weights are multiplied by
the perceived number of units plus an uncertainty. In turn, these individual values are summed
to develop a total ship weight. The top-up or baseline method is the most common for ship
estimations, but in this case, a closely related parent ship cannot be used.
Without a parent ship, the ratiocination, or scaling, method was used to estimate various
weights for each ESWBS grouping. This is the second most common method for ship weight
estimation and multiplies weight components of reference vessels by a scaled ratio to achieve
a new weight estimate. This is especially useful as a starting point in the design process, but
there are limitations, the most serious of which is the fact that new technologies or special
features not common to all ships cannot be accurately scaled (3). To counter this, additional
margins are used to ensure a conservative estimate is achieved.
For this ship, two references were used when assigning ratios and weights. The first is a
military ship outlined in the ratiocination manual from the Society of Allied Weight Engineers
(4). Clearly, a cruise ship is completely different in design and this ship was only used to
identify small components that do not greatly affect the overall weight, including various
surveillance and command equipment. More helpful was a sample weight estimation of a
Panamax-max cruise ship, as provided by the faculty of the University of New Orleans School
of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering (5). This database provided reasonable
estimations common with the new ships design, though they were factored to account for the
great size differences between the two ships.
Though many parameters are estimated, the actual weights are used for components that have
specifically be identified, taken from online specifications. These include major machinery
components such as the electrical engines, emergency generator, switchboards, and main
generators, in addition to lifesaving equipment and paint. Where applicable, the source for
such components is provided in the calculation tables.

The structural weights were taken directly from NAPA and show nearly 60% of the 2062
tonnes as the steel hull structure weight and the remaining 40% from the superstructure.
Group 200 includes the propulsion system, with the main weight contribution coming from
the ABB electric engines, steering gears, and propellers. In total, this group accounts for 5%
of the lightship weight. The electric systems are listed in group 300 and make up for 9% of
the weight, the vast majority of which is from the two main generator sets and third, standby
set. Group 400, command and surveilance equipment, is nearly insignificant for the cruise
ship, but was included in order to achieve a holistic estimation. The auxiliary systems, group
500, make up 2% of the lightship weight, with the largest single contribution from the
anchoring equipment and six marine evacuation systems.
Finally, the outfitting and furnishing weights, located in group 600, are the second highest
contributors, with a total weight equaling 35% of the total. An estimated outfitting weight for
each deck was accomplished using the course notes from the Ship Conceptual Design class.
For each, the total area was taken from the general arrangement and subsequently multiplied
by a predefined factor based on the spaces and functions of each deck. The decks comprised
of public spaces, for instance, have a much higher multiplication factor than those with
outdoor decks. The estimated paint and primer weights were also included in this group,
achieved with actual coverage and density values from shipping paint suppliers and calculated
surface area values for both the hull and superstructure from NAPA. It is assumed that the
hull needs both primer and paint and the superstructure paint alone. The final weight
contribution in this group is the four passenger and two crew elevators.
The final weight contributions are in the form of additional margins and allowances, which
are crucial during early design phases. This is to ensure that the estimated displacement and
KG values as originally projected during the initial conceptual design phase are met at
delivery (3). As suggested by the Society of Allied Weight Engineers, a 7.5% service life
allowance accounts for weight gains over time to compensate for additional paint and
outfitting. In addition, a 10% acquisition margin is added to account for any underestimation
or omission of individual components.
With the total weight, the vertical center of gravity of the entire ship is calculated with the
following equation (2). The total longitudinal and transverse centers are found accordingly.

In order to check the rationality of the total lightship weight, a parametric study of existing
vessels was completed. The results show a steady correlation between a cruise ships total
lightweight and length overall, as shown in Figure 3-1.

This data yields a very close estimate to the calculated one, especially after the same margins
are applied. This provides more validation to the chosen methods and result. A comparison

This data shows that the detailed estimation is, on whole, in agreeance with both the
simplified initial estimate and existing ships. This is especially promising given the
uncertainties in all estimations and is satisfactory at such an early design stage.
4. Baseline GM estimate
Before using the NAPA software to estimate the metacentric height (GM) at different
specified loading conditions with more accuracy, a baseline GM will first be found by
approximate formulas. This will signify whether the NAPA results are reasonable. The
fundamental formula for the GM of an ocean-going vessel is as follows.
4-1
Here, the vertical center of buoyancy (KB), metacentric radius (BM) can be calculated with
formulas 4-2 and 4-3, respectively. The vertical center of gravity (KG or VCG) of the ship is
taken in the same manner as from equation 4-1.
4-2
4-3
These two equations are based on various coefficients and parameters, as defined below.

With these equations, a baseline GM estimate can be found using the additional known
parameters shown in Table 4-1.

With these values, the baseline GM for the ship is found to be 1.04 m. Again, this is only a
basis for comparison and is not expected to represent the final stability of the vessel.

voyage to take into account free surface effect. The resulting displacement is now 6,830 [t],
the draft 5.37 [m], and the GM of the entire ship 1.69 [m]. The ship trims -0.22 under such
conditions. Similar to the first case, stability criteria is fulfilled as can be seen Figure 5-12 and
the appropriate stability and strength curves are provided in Figure 5-4 and Figure 5-8.

displacement of 5,002 [t], a 4.16 [m] draft, and a 1.09 [m] GM. Similar to the previous cases,
stability criteria is fulfilled as can be seen Figure 5-14,and stability and strength curves are
shown in Figure 5-6 and Figure 5-10.
such accelerations are not a severe issue since the ship is relatively low, a feature that
enhances a decrease in acceleration. It should be also mentioned that permanent ballast water
is used for correcting slightly the trim and also to maintain the necessary draft according to
different load cases. As for the max KG and min GM curves, these were not obtained due to
the lack of skills of NAPA, there are curves just for limit case as can be seen in Figure 5-15
and Figure 5-16. When trying to get these for different load cases it just gave empty graphs.
As for strength curves, then maximum bending moment in hogging is during the arrival to the
port condition, where the bending moment is approximately
smaller of the maximum bending moment in the roughest situation that was calculated
according to the rules. Therefore, this result is quite reasonable.
A summary table for all loading conditions is shown in Table 5-1. It is clear that the
metacentric heights differ from the original, baseline calculation. This is unsurprising due to
the latters very generic characteristics.

With this relationship, the deadweight for modern cruise ships is, on average, around 25-31%
of the actual lightship weight. This would yield deadweight value between 1297 and 1547 [t],
which is lower than the calculated value, though not by a large margin.
Possible reasons for this discrepancy could be the rough estimation methods, particularly for
the ships center of gravity and total lightweight. Both of these parameters are strongly
dependent on the NAPA steel model, which may not be detailed enough for a precise
estimation. About the center of gravity, the individual gravities for various components were
very roughly estimated, as it is impossible to know exact locations at this stage of the design
process. Future iterations in the design spiral may yield a better convergence.

1. Damage stability
1.1 Introduction
Once the intact stability of the vessel has been assessed in the four loading conditions
described in the previous chapter, the damage stability can be assessed. At some point of the
ships lifetime, it might encounter some damage. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate some
probable damage scenarios and predict the ships ability to withstand the damage and assess
whether she will survive the damage or not. The damage stability evaluation was done in
NAPA, which calculates damage stability in different loading conditions. Thus, initial
conditions were defined by specifying draft, trim, and metacentric height, which was taken
from the intact stability assessment results. It has been decided to assess three loading
conditions, while the lightship load case was neglected. Three different damage scenarios
were made and all seemed quite reasonable for this type of ship. The calculations for damage
stability were done for each loading condition, with nine scenarios in total. The damage cases
are described in following subchapters.
1.3 Summary
Besides the vessels intact stability calculations, it must also be assumed that the vessel
suffers some damages during her lifetime and therefore it is necessary to evaluate the ships
ability to withstand and survive such incidents with minimal losses. Damages stability
analysis of the project ship was conducted in NAPA and the results showed that the ship will
not sink in a case of damaged described in previously defined load cases. The most critical
scenario was damage case 1, with a deep side penetration due to another ship in arrival
loading condition. The ship was heeled due to that by, in the final stage, approximately 14
degrees, but with this heeling angle it manages to float and the evacuation is not needed. With
the two other scenarios, only a small trim angle was obtained and this can be balanced with
ballast tanks. Although the ship is able to float, however, it is not capable of operating by her
own power anymore, due to the damages in the propulsion motor room where generators are
located. Therefore, it is reasonable to evacuate the passengers from the ship, as this ship has to
be towed to back on the port.
With these considerations in mind, there is an endless number of possible damage cases that
are not covered in this project work and therefore analysis into the damage stability of the
ship would definitely be needed in further design. One of the scenarios that should also be
considered in analysis is a grounding scenario, as this is nowadays a statistically common case
in bad weather conditions near to the shore.

1. Economic analysis
Economic considerations for a cruise ship are crucial. Not only must the initial cost be
calculated, but additional factors must also be considered in order to ensure the ships
operational profitability. Annual operating costs and revenue figures are examples of
parameters that determine the success of a ship. For this analysis, it was a point not only to
compute the estimated cost of building the ship, but also to perform a profitability analysis in
order to find the minimum charge per person needed to guarantee a profit. This section of the
report summarizes all steps in performing the cost analysis for this ship.
)](
[1]
Since the gross volume of current ships is not often recorded, a parametric comparison
between known values for gross tonnage and lightship weight was used. After plotting the two
values for several reference ships, it is clear that a strong correlation exists between the two
parameters, as shown in Figure 1-1.

This correlation makes it possible to compare this ship to existing references directly. From
this trend line, the gross tonnage is approximated as 6577 GRT.
In order to compile a useful set of parametric cost data, new-build cost information for 172
cruise ships was collected. After organizing the data, a very weak correlation between ship
size and acquisition cost was initially found. After taking the effect of interest into account,
however, a strong trend was identified. The simple relationship between the net present value
(NPV), interest (i), acquisition cost (AC), and age (n) was used in this regard. This
relationship is shown in the equation below.

The resultant graphical trend for all data is shown in Figure 1-2.

An estimate with all data, however, will likely be too low. This is due to the effect of including much larger
ships into the analysis. In relation, there are fewer ships within our size range, meaning they have less effect on
the trend line than the larger ships, which include many additional components. Therefore, in order to achieve a
more accurate estimation, the data was truncated by implementing a 20,000 GRT size limit. With this truncation,
a new regression was approximated that fits the smaller ship data with much more certainty. This is shown in
Figure 1-3.

The smaller ships are no longer devalued and the result is a larger initial cost value. From this,
a final reference acquisition cost of approximately 67 million USD is selected.
1.1.2 Detailed acquisition cost estimate
A second method of estimating the acquisition cost is to systematically categorize the ships
components and estimate the cost based on weight. This method is especially useful during
early design stages, where, for typical ships, the general cost structure will be known. A high
degree of accuracy is not needed for budgeting, as variations in pricing can easily occur even
when detailed quotations are obtained; up to a
acceptable at this stage of planning (3). Therefore, approximations will be used where
quotations are not available.
Based on its function, a ship component can be assigned to an appropriate category for which
historical data is available. As such, approximate unit costs can be applied in order to
calculate a total weight for any component, subsystem, or system. During the first iterations of
the design spiral, eight cost groupings are sufficient to differentiate between different items
while ensuring that component costs within a single group do not differ significantly (3).
These groupings are listed below in Table 1-1.

Group 1 includes both the structural steel and steel labour costs related to the construction of
the hull and superstructure. The second group includes all additional structural steel weight,
such as structural castings and fabrications, hatch covers, and watertight doors. This is
neglected at this point, as it can be assumed that this will comprise only a small percentage of
the steel weight and costs. Therefore, this group is essentially absorbed into the first, as the
NAPA model does not differentiate between these weights.
The third group is not very important for a passenger vessel, but does include firefighting,
paint, and plumber work, which are present. Group 4 should contain a very large percentage
of the total acquisition cost, as the accommodation outfitting is significant in both weight and
price. This is expected, as the ship falls into the luxury cruising market and will accordingly
feature very expensive furnishings. According to this grouping system, deck coverings,
windows, galley gear, HVAC units, lifts, nautical instruments, and electrical work should also
be included within this group. The deck machinery and its related components are described
by group 5. Examples include the steering gear, bow thruster, anchoring and mooring
equipment, and davits.
The final three groups consist of machinery components. With this system, the main engines,
gearbox, shaft, and propellers are included in the propulsion group, group 6. The generators
and pumps are consolidated into group 7 while uptakes, ventilation, and engine room
pipework are included in the final group.
For each group, a unit cost per tonne is provided based on statistical data (3). However, the
data is only accurate for the time of publication and should be augmented to reflect its net
present value in the same way as before. The result is shown in Table 1-2.

Though the provided grouping is adequate for defining similar costs between components, the
final costs should be reported using the same breakdown structure from the weight estimate,
the expanded ship breakdown structure (ESWBS). Consistency in this regard is very
important, as direct comparisons cannot be made with different methods. Therefore, the
individual components from the weight breakdown were assigned to their appropriate cost
group based on the aforementioned definitions. Following this, the respective unit cost per
tonne was applied and all components were summed for each ESWBS group. The resulting
total cost can be taken as the new estimation for acquisition. The detailed calculation tables,
by ESWBS group, are provided in Appendix 2 and the summary table is shown in Table 1-3.

The result is an acquisition cost estimate that is very close to the parametrically estimated one.
The new estimate of roughly 65 million US dollars results in less than a 3% difference when
compared to the parametrically estimated value. This validates the chosen method and
suggests that the calculated acquisition cost is reasonable.

In the same way that a service life and additional allowance were included in the lightship
weight estimate, a margin should be included for the final acquisition cost. At this design
stage, two important margins should be considered to ensure a conservative assessment. The
first is a ship owners cost margin, which covers additional expenses including spare parts,
plan approval, supervision, and administrative and legal fees (4). In addition, a design margin
should be implemented to account for design, electricity, and trial costs. Appropriate values
for these margins are 6% and 5%, respectively (2). Therefore, with margins included, the final
acquisition cost for the vessel will be approximately 72 million USD, as shown in Table 1-4.

The operating days per year is taken as 340 days to allow for ample reserve time for
maintenance and the resale value is an estimated 25% of the acquisition cost. The service life
was based solely on luxury ship data. Contemporary cruise ships were not taken into account,
as it can be assumed that luxury ships will have a lower brand life due to the higher
expectation level associated with them. Though luxury ships are not usually scrapped
following their retirement, they have often been rebranded to other cruise lines. Therefore, the
service life is in terms of brand life and not total ship lifecycle. From the data provided in
Table A1-2, an average brand life of 14.3 years was found, which is slightly less than the
brand life of cruise ships in general. Thus, a service life of 15 years was chosen for this
design.
The remaining parameters can be divided into three major groups: acquisition cost, operating
costs, and revenue estimates. With the initial cost now known, the remaining variables must
be identified with various methods.

The fuel costs will clearly contribute to a large percentage of the total annual operating costs,
as with any cruise ship. Existing prices fluctuate greatly based on date and location, but the
current price in Rotterdam, 865 USD/ton, was selected (6). Along with this, the calculated
hours at sea, average power according to our machinery calculations, and specific fuel
consumption of the engines according to their specifications were used to calculate the annual
fuel costs. As seen in Table A3-1, this is found to be approximately 5.6 million USD.
For payroll expenses, the crew was divided into five categories: captain, staff captain, senior
officer, junior officer, and general crew. The estimated monthly salary, in USD, was taken
from current averages (5), as listed in Table A3-2. The number of crew corresponding to each
position correlates with the cabin types shown in the general arrangement. The total annual
payroll expenses is calculated as 1.77 million USD.
Port fees will be relatively high for this ship, as the chosen itinerary is very port intensive,
with no full sea days in between any two. Generally, docking fees depend on gross tonnage,
and a berthing rate of 0.15 euro/GT was chosen and converted to approximately 0.20
USD/GT per day. In reality, fees will vary by port, but it was not possible to find the actual
docking fee for each of the selected cities. For additional fees, including waste disposal
charges, an additional margin was applied. With these considerations, an estimated 790,000
USD per year will be spent on port-related costs, as shown in Table A3-3.
Maintenance and capital costs were included in the same category, as each was computed as
factors of the acquisition cost. General upkeep costs were taken as 5% of this value, while
10% was taken for the more demanding refurbishment costs. The latter will be unevenly
10
distributed based on dry-dock dates, but a yearly average was used for calculations. Finally,
the capital and insurance costs were also taken as an acquisition cost percentage. The result is
a yearly maintenance and capital expense of roughly 746,000 USD, as given in Table A3-5.
Next, consumables for both the crew and passengers were estimated, as this should be a
considerable portion of the annual costs for a luxury cruise ship. Based on current figures for
the cruise market (5), an estimated 30 USD per person, per day will be spent on food, while
the corresponding cost for crewmembers was factorized. Though actual figures were not
found, an additional 10 and 15 USD per person, per day, was taken for the crew and
passengers, respectively. This will cover additional consumables such as water and other
waste needs. Table A3-4 shows the consumable calculations, resulting in nearly 2.8 million
USD per year.
The final annual operating expenses are presented as miscellaneous costs. According to
current expense profiles, cruise ships pay an additional 14-15% in terms of operating costs
that do not fit into the prior categories (5). This includes corporate, agent commission,
depreciation, and amortization costs, among others. In line with the example, miscellaneous
costs were estimated as 14% of the sum of the previously calculated costs.
Considering all six cost categories, total annual operating costs are calculated as 13.3 million
USD, as shown in Table A3-6. A breakdown of these expenses is shown in Figure 1-5.

With these figures in mind, conservative ticket fares were estimated in order to ensure
profitability under all circumstances, including a scenario where the demand decreases and
ticket prices drop accordingly. A weighted fare was then calculated and used for
computations. The fare categories and values, along with the corresponding weighted ticket
price, are shown in Table 1-6.

In addition to ticket fares, cruise lines make a major profit on daily passenger spending,
including specialty dining, spa, alcohol, and shore excursion profits. In line with other luxury
cruise lines, the average daily profit, per person, was taken as 50 USD. A projected load
12
factor of 0.9 was also introduced. This is the ratio of average passenger capacity to that of the
maximum passenger capacity and is considered in order to replicate seasonality effects.
With these parameters, the annual ticket revenue and onboard revenue can be calculated based
on the weighted ticket fare, operating days per year, onboard spending, and passenger
capacity at the selected load factor. The full calculations are included in Table A4-1.
1.2.3 Profitability calculations
By calculating expected annual revenue and operating costs as well as compiling the previous
list of requirements, the required ticket rate calculation can be completed. The projected
equivalent uniform annualized costs (EUAC) are divided into two sections: variable operation
and maintenance (O&M) and fixed O&M. The fixed costs per passenger are the sum of crewrelated costs, ship-related costs, and general and administrative costs, while variable daily
costs are largely dependent on food and drinks. The variable costs are taken as 20% of the
total annual operating costs, with the remaining 80% allocated to fixed costs. Additionally, a
final EUAC cost is introduced by considering the assumed capital recovery factor of 0.21.
This is the ratio of a constant annuity to the present value and is considered for the entire
lifecycle of the ship. The three EUAC variables are summed to yield the total projection.
Finally, the required freight rate per day is taken as a relation between the total EUAC,
revenue, and weighted fares.

The result, as shown in Table A4-1, is a required ticket rate of 292 USD per person, per day.
Therefore, the ship will be profitable as long as the weighted fares are greater than this value.
With the suggested ticket prices of todays luxury cruise ships and the weighted fare of 421
USD per person, per day, the ship is projected to be profitable. For easier comparison, an
annual breakeven analysis is provided in Table A4-2. This shows the minimum annual
revenue required to run a profitable operation alongside the projected value. Again,
profitability is achieved.

The design of M/S Arianna was a challenging project for all involved. From the initial design
challenge of creating a cruise ship without lifeboats to the final report and presentation,
critical thinking and problem solving skills have been tested. Every step of the design brought
with it unique challenges and the importance of team work was clear from the onset of the
semester.
The objective of this course and its project was to develop concepts from the Ship Conceptual
Design course at a more detailed level. The result should be a feasible design that considers
all major design phases in as holistic an approach as possible, and this report shows success in
that regard.
Throughout its completion, the project highlighted a large learning experience. Though each
task was collaborated on by all, many aspects were worked on simultaneously and major task
allocations were assigned based on experience and strengths. One key lesson in this regard
was that progress on any one area of development might need to be completely re-worked if
another area made a major conflicting decision. Seemingly, this occurred more than once.
However, this provided great insight with regard to the preliminary design stages of a ship
and truly highlighted its iterative nature. Another consequence of this was that each member
needed to be very informed about the progress of others, meaning transparent communication
was a necessity. Additionally, yet another lesson was the fact that help was needed. That is,
the guidance of professors and advice from the assignment graders were invaluable and the
final ship design is much better as a result.
Over the semester, the vessels design was constantly improving. As such, if more time were
available, each area of design could naturally benefit from further development. Design never
truly ends at this stage and there is no perfect solution, so further time would allow for
refinement or the ability to account for additional considerations. Specifically, some design
aspects could use more attention than others.
The most obvious areas of improvement are in relation to the utilized software. Though
effective, for instance, the NAPA and Construct models could certainly be developed further
to reflect a higher level of detail. In the same vain, the basic beam theory tables in the hull
structure calculations could be further improved. Similarly, the stability process, while
appropriate for early stage analysis, is by no means finalized. Additional damage cases and
conditions, for example, could be included. The cost estimate would be greatly improved
1
with the identification of major equipment and component costs. Even though it is difficult to
receive such information from suppliers, this would be a consideration in the next design
phase. The propeller and hull forms might benefit from further optimization. As this was
among the first tasks, however, it is difficult implementing changes without affecting all
downstream-completed work. As such, this is again a task for future design iterations. Some
processes, such as the general arrangement, are never truly complete at this design stage.
Having said that, as much detail as possible was put into each deliverable with regard to time
restraints and skill levels.
With these future considerations taken into account, the result is still a feasible preliminary
design that shows great improvement over that from Ship Conceptual Design. The initial
challenge was to design a vessel without lifeboats and this has been considered throughout all
phases of the project. The general arrangement is atypical in order to allow for three separate
evacuation decks and the structural calculations were completed with this in mind. Though
many alternatives exist, the selected evacuation methods are industry-approved and very
redundant and the evacuation procedure is no less safe than a typical lifeboat system.
This project has helped all involved to grow as problem solvers, communicators, and team
members, and has helped in recognizing the importance of learning before, during, and after
each design process. Though challenging, the design of M/S Arianna was a rewarding
experience that allowed for further development of the knowledge acquired in previous
courses in the completion of the project ship. In this regard, the project and course itself was a
success.
