Assembly of Yacht

DESIGNING AND ASSEMBLING OF YACHT

OBJECTIVE:

To design a model of yacht and assembling them with the features of parts used in yacht and giving them a photorealistic feature to the model.

INTRODUCTION:

  • A Boat with sails and sometimes an engine,used for either racing or travelling on for pleasure, A 205-foot yacht would cost around $3.5 million. For further details (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yacht)
  • This yacht is used on the famous Hollywood movie JAMES BOND skyfall for full details (https://youtu.be/C34BMQuCAIY)

DESIGN METHODOLGY:

DESCRIPTION:

The yacht consists of many part we majorly going to design the 9 parts those are listed below.

  1. Propeller
  2. Radar
  3. Hull
  4. Superstructure
  5. Radar mast
  6. Front seat
  7. Middle seat
  8. Rear seat
  9. Garage door

Note:

All the parts are done in MM units and all the sketches should be fully defined.

FEATURES DESCRPITION:

  1. Line, circle, arc, rectangle:

This are the basic features used in designing it can be used in 2D & 3D drawings.

  1. Fillet:

Fillet creates a rounded terminal or external faces on the part,you can fillet all edges of a face.

  1. offset:

It creates an same sketch with different scale values either to have inside the sketch or outside the sketch.

  1. Dome:

It can applied to the outside faces of the irregular faces and produces a smooth curvature on the faces.

  1. Lofted Boss:

It generates a complex geometry in a single feature by interpolating surface between various cross sections of a model.

  1. Extrude Boss:

It is a feature to convert a 2D sketch into a 3D sketch’s

  1. Trim:

It helps to remove the excess line or geometry in the sketches and can remove 3D sketch.

  1. Split:

It is a feature to cut or separate the surface or bodies in the sketch,You can able to split faces on multiple bodies.

  1. Dynamic mirror:

It creates a same selected entities with the help of construction line or reference line.

  1. Revolve:

It is similar to the boss extrude but here it will create an round shape extrude with an controlled angles.

  1. Combine:

As the name prefers combining the two or more bodies into a single body.

  1. Surface knit:

It is used to knit the two free edges of the surface together.Also it reduces the gap between the two edges of the surface.

  1. Extend surface:

It is similar to the trim future but here it will create the line or extend from the created sketch, Here we can also extend the surface of it.

  1. Projection of curve:

As the name indicates projecting the curves for that we need two curves in different plane so that these two curves intersect and form an projection of curve.

Parts:

  1. Propeller:

A mechanical device for propelling a boat or aircraft, consisting of a revolving shaft with two or more broad, angled blades attached to it.

Features and Tools used:

Views:

  • Feature tree:

2. Radar:

The radar is one of the most used equipment systems onboard ships. It is designed for detecting and tracking targets a considerable distance. Needless to say, it’s of great practical value to the navigators. Proper use of radar and radar plotting aids in both restricted visibility and clear weather can help prevent collisions and ensure the safety of the ship.

Features and Tools used:

  • Views:

  • Feature tree:

3. Hull:

The main body of a ship or other vessel, including the bottom, sides, and deck but not the masts, superstructure, rigging, engines, and other fittings.

Features and tools used:

  • Views:

  • Feature tree:

4. Superstructure:

A superstructure is an extended construction of an ship or platform that rises above the rest of the ship or platform in a distinct manner. The word comes from a combination of two Latin words, the Latin prefix ‘super’ means in addition or above or in excess of, whereas the stem word ‘structure’ means to build or to heap up.

Features and tools used:

  • Views:

  • Feature tree:

5. Radar mast:

The definition of a mast is a tall pole used for support of the sails on a boat. An example of a mast is the pole that holds up the sails and radar on a ship.

Features and tools used:

  • Views:

  • Feature tree:

6. Front seat:

A thing made or used for sitting purpose and it is located at the front portion of the yacht.

Features and tools used:

  • Views:

  • Feature Tree:

7. Middle seat:

A thing made or used for sitting purpose and it is located at the Middle portion of the yacht.

Features and tools used:

  • Views:

  • Feature tree:

8. Rear seat:

A thing made or used for sitting purpose and it is located at the Rear portion of the yacht.

Features and Tools used:

  • Views:

  • Feature tree:

9. Garage door:

A garage door is a large door on a garage that opens either manually or by an electric motor. Garage doors are frequently large enough to accommodate automobiles and other vehicles.

Features and tools used:

  • Views:

  • Feature tree:

  • Assembly of yacht:

In this section we will be assembing the parts and converting them into single body and learning the mates feature for each and individual parts.

  • Features and Tools used:

  • Features:

1. Concentricity:

Having a common center, as circles or spheres.

2. Coincidence:

Joining of two points or a line to intersect with them.

3. Length,Angle:

Moving the part to certain length and angle with respect to the planes you have selected.

Solidwork Visualize (Realistic view):

In this section the rendering of yacht with real environment will be done by using solidwork visualize (2020)

  • Radar Mast:

  • Propeller:

Conclusion:

  • Finally designing and modelling of yacht is done by solidworks 2020
  • Part,assembly,rendering of the yacht is learned.
  • Total parts of yacht,Surface modelling is learned and also by using the blueprints.
  • Rendering the model gives the realistic view of the yacht and now yacht is completely finished.
