Assembly of Yacht

                                                                 Yacht

Aim:

• To model each parts of a Yacht and assemble all the parts using solidworks.

Objectives:

• To create the parts of an Yacht and assemble them to get a solid model using solidworks and working on different features in solid works.

Procedure:

Propeller :

• A propelleris a rotating fan-like structure which is used to propel the shipby using the power generated and transmitted by the main engine of the 

Tools used:

• Fillet
• Extrude
• Revolve
• Loft
• Circular pattern

 

 

Radar :

• Radaris a vital navigation component for safety at sea and near the shore.

Tools used:

• Sketch pattern
• Split line
• Extrude
• Cut Extrude
• Fillet

 

Garage Door :

• It is like the same other doors for the garage in the yacht it protects the things or vehicle placed inside the garage.
• In this parts we have used the cut part of the garage to make the garage door.

Tools used

• Fillet
• Extrude
• Mirror

Middle Seat :

• This seat is placed next to the superstructure on the back side above the garage.

Tools used:

• Fillet
• Extrude
• Revolve
• Chamfer

Front Seat :

• This seat is placed in the front end of the yacht infront of the superstructure .

Tools used:

• Fillet
• Extrude
• Surface Knit
• Surface trim
• Surface loft
• Revolve
• Dome

Rear seat :

• This seat is placed at the very last edge of the hull’s main body surface that is behind the superstructure.

Tools used:

• Fillet
• Extrude
• Surface Knit
• Surface trim
• Surface loft
• Revolve
• Chamfer
• Ruled surface

Radar mast:

• It is the mounting place for the radar so that it would rotate to sweep the surface for several signals and also we can mount the horns in them.

Tools used:

• Extrude
• Fillet
• Mirror
• Shell
• Projected curves
• Revolve
• Chamfer

 

Superstructure :

• The superstructure is actually the place for the bridge and the deck houses normally the surface above the deck is called the superstructure.

Tools used:

• Surface fill
• Surface extend
• Surface trim
• Ruled surface
• Surface offset
• 3D sketch
• Fillet ...

Hull :

• It the main body of the yacht which carries all the other parts in this model.
• The other models like seats and radarmast have been drawn by using the surface bodies of the hull as reference.

Tools used:

• Shell
• Extrude
• Cut Extrude
• Helix and spiral
• Chamfer
• Fillet
• Split
• Sweep
• Surface fill
• Projected curves

Yacht Assembly:

• In this assembly it is quite simple because we selected the hull surface bodies to draw the superstructure , seats , radar mast .
• These parts can be placed just by leaving it freely to float and the it fixes with the hull part automatically.

Tools used:

• Coincident
• Concentric
• Mating of plane

Rendering:

• Rendering is the process involved in the generation of a two-dimensional or three-dimensional image from a model by means of application programs.
• Rendering is done for the yacht using the photoview 360.

Tools used:

• Edit scene
• Edit decal
• Preview window
• Final render
• Option
• Schedule render
• Camera

Conclusion:

• While modelling yacht, I have gained more knowledge about the features and where to use them in solid works which helped me to complete this model easily. Some new commands that I have learned were;
• Ruled surfaces
• Surface knit
• Surface extend
• Various surface trim options
• Split line
• Mostly all the surfaces features
• Overall I have improved my skill in solid works using these 5 challenges.
