Chapter 1 Ship Design （船舶设计）Lesson 2 Ships Categorized（船舶分类） Introduction （介绍） The forms a ship can take are innumerable. 一艘船能采用的外形是不可胜数的 A vessel might appear to be a sleek seagoing hotel carrying passengers along to some exotic destination; a floating fortress bristling with missile launchers; 。or an elongated box transporting tanks of crude oil and topped with complex pipe connections. 一艘船可以看做是 将乘客一直运送到外国目的地的优美的远航宾馆。 竖立有导弹发射架的水面堡垒及甲板上铺 盖有复杂管系的加长罐装原油运输轮 None of these descriptions of external appearance, however, does justice to the ship system as a whole and integrated unit 所有这些外部特点的描述都不能说明船舶系统是一个 总的集合体 self -sufficient,seaworthy, and adequately stable in its function as a secure habitat for crew and cargo. ——船员和货物的安全性功能： 自给自足， 适航， 足够稳定。 This is the concept that the naval architect keeps in mind when designing the ship and that provides the basis for subsequent discussions, not only in this chapter but throughout the entire book. 这是一个造船工程师设计船舶使必须记住的、 能为以后讨论提供根据的观念， 不 仅涉及本章也贯穿全书。 In order to discuss naval architecture,it is helpful to place ships in certain categories. For purposes of this text, ships are classified according to their means of physical support and their designed purposes. 将船舶分成一些特定的种类来讨论造船工程是有好处的。 本文的目的就是 根据船舶 物理支撑方式 和设计目的来将它们分类。 Ships Typed According to Means of Physical Support （根据物理支撑方式来分类） The mode of physical support by which vessels can be categorized assumes that the vessel is operating under designed conditions - Ships are designed to operate above, on, or below the surface of the sea, so the air -sea interface will be used as the reference datum. 船舶按物理支撑的分类方式假设， 船舶是在设计工况的条件下航行。 船舶预定 在海面上， 海面中或海面以下航行，因此使用空气与水的接触面作为基准面。 Because the nature of the physical environment is quite different for the three regions just mentioned, the physical characteristics of ships designed to operate in those regions can be diverse. 由于上面提到的三个区域中物理环境的本质相差很大， 所以那些区域中的船的物 理 特性也不同。 Aerostatic Support （空气静力支撑） There are two categories of vessels that are supported ab
