1. Department of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering

2. Introduction Joint Department of the Universities of Glasgow and
Strathclyde
Established in 2001 through a merger of Department of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering at the University of Glasgow and the Department of Ship and Marine Technology at the University of Strathclyde
Based at the University of Strathclyde, students have access to resources and facilities of both Universities
The Engineering Faculty at Strathclyde is the largest Engineering Faculty in Scotland and is one of the UK's leading centres of engineering education and research
The First Chair of Naval Architecture in the World was established in 1883 at the University of Glasgow

7. Research – Acre Road Hydrodynamics Laboratory

8. Research – Acre Road Hydrodynamics Laboratory
Majority of experimental work performed at this laboratory
Used for UG & PG student project work, research projects and commercial testing
Used for measuring:
- Ship resistance & sea-keeping, unsteady motion of ships and floating bodies, survivability of damaged ships, hydrodynamics of towed surface-pierced and submerged bodies, ocean engineering studies, wave impact & slamming studies, marine renewable energy studies
Dimensions: 76m x 4.6m x 2.5m
Features:
- Carriage: Computer –controlled digital drive
- Wavemaker: generate regular and irregular waves over 0.5 m
- Data acquistion: PC based modular data acquistion/control system.
