Newcastle University
Modules:
Advanced Hydrodynamics:
Concepts building on topics introduced in Marine Fluid Dynamics and dealing with wave diffraction and separated flows. Regular and irregular waves and modelling random seas.
Surveying Ships & Offshore Installations:
Summarise the work and responsibilities of the marine surveyor, and in particular the procedures employed in structural and machinery surveys of ships and offshore installations.
Theory of Plates & Grillages:
This module gave an insight to design plates and stiffened panels and to develop the knowledge and skills to undertake elastic and plastic response analysis of stiffened plate structures.
Ship Propulsion:
Fundamentals of ship propulsion regarding to design and performance. Basic matching of engine and propeller. Propulsion (machinery) systems and selection, power take- off systems and fuel efficiency.
Ship Performance at Sea:
Main causes of performance losses (in-service) associated with the hull and propulsion, and methods to estimate these losses. Concept of maintenance, various maintenance systems and condition monitoring of main machinery systems. Systems reliability, failure mode and effect analysis and fault tree analysis.
Optimal Marine Design:
Summarise the design integration using formal optimisation methods and knowledge on how and when to model single/ multiple objective problems.
Design & Analysis of Marine Transport Systems, Marine Transport Economics, Marine Production Technology, Marine Transport and Economics.
Scored 73% aggregate in written exam.
Anticipating an upper second class Degree (2:1).
DISSERTATION:
Software used was ICEM CFD (ANSYS 13.0) and FLUENT v6.
A 2D mainsail and headsail interaction in upwind condition was performed using a CFD simulation on America`s cup 33 yacht’s sails for different camber percentages of a headsail.
Six combinations of sails were provided by the supervisor, and the headsail cambers were 13%, 16%, 20%, 23%, 26% and 30%, but only one mainsail camber was used. A thorough discussion regarding the effect on pressure coefficient with the change in camber was explained.
For better understanding, 3 different grids were made namely Coarse, Medium and Fine which provided a better discussion regarding results and validation. With the help of the supervisor, errors and uncertainties in the results were discussed using a simple graphical approach.
As there was no experimental data available for this thesis, no comparison could be done between the computational results and experimental results. However, effect of different grids in CFD and different cambers of sail, on the sail interaction were reported clearly with remarks.

WORK EXPERIENCE
September 2009 – February 2010: ENGINE CADET
Gulf Energy Maritime PJSC (GEM), Dubai
Worked on a M.T Gulf Moon 37,000 DWT Chemical Tanker operating mainly between Far East and Middle East regions.
In addition to the normal watch keeping duties related to ship operation, I was working as a Second Assistant to the Senior Engineer and gained knowledge regarding different types of machinery on board the ship.
During this internship period I learnt about safety requirements on board the ship during processes like daily ship operation, Bunkering, Discharging/Loading, Manoeuvring etc.
September 2010 – December 2010: JUNIOR ENGINEER
Gulf Energy Maritime PJSC (GEM), Dubai
Worked on a M.T Gulf Cobalt 74,999 DWT Product Tanker operating worldwide.
Being a junior most officer onboard the ship my job was to take orders from senior engineer and perform them accurately.
Taking running machinery parameters, sounding readings of different tanks, performing various fuel transfers and transfer calculations were part of my daily routine.
