Year: 2015 Language: english Author: multipule Publisher: The Nautical Institute Edition: 2nd ISBN: 978 1 906915 28 5 Format: PDF Quality: OCR without errors Pages count: 188 Description: Bad ship design can kill people. It can also make working on board difficult and resting on board impossible. Good design can make maritime operations safer and more effective. This book aims to give naval architects and ship designers, both new and experienced, an insight into how seafarers work and live on the ships they design and how their daily lives could be improved by focusing on human-centred design. Naval architects rarely get an opportunity to go to sea, and there are few avenues for seafarers to make their views known to designers. The Nautical Institute would like to start a dialogue to help improve the flow of information between naval architects and seafarers, and to follow up on the work carried out by the EU CyClaDes project. Practical articles on ship types and the operational requirements of personnel, illustrated by case studies, form the core of the book. References are given together with suggestions for further reading.
