AOE 2204: Introduction to ocean engineering

Introduction to the design of ocean vehicles and offshore structures with specific topics including buoyancy, hull geometry, body plan drawing, coefficients of form, hydrostatic calculations, intact and damaged stability, large angle stability, stability criteria for design and related rules and regulations, and marine economics.

AOE 3214: Ocean wave mechanics

Introduction to theory of wave in deep and shallow water, including wave generation and propagation; description of wave statistics and spectral representation for realistic ocean conditions; introduction to ocean acoustics.

AOE 3234/5334: (Advanced) Ocean vehicle dynamics

Analysis of motions of rigid body vehicles in water, including influence of added mass and buoyancy; seakeeping motion responses in waves, wave-induced structural loads, random response analysis via spectral analysis, and extreme response analysis; introduction to hydroelasticity and maneuvering.
