1 MASTER IN YACHT DESIGN ANNOUNCEMENT 15 thedition Master sponsored by the Consiglio Nazionale degli Architetti Pianificatori Paesaggisti e Conservatori, releases 15 professional credits The program of the Master courses by Quasar Design University started in 1988, among the first ones in Italy and eleven years before the university reform that with the Law 509 of 1999 established University Masters. Since then the formula didn t change even if the programs are constantly upgraded in every new edition. Strengthened by an experience of more than twenty years, today the Quasar starts courses which have a structure, duration, scientific level and professionalizing efficiency in compliance with what s established by the MIUR. The distinctive character of Quasar Masters is the attention in keeping a particular balance between theoretic-disciplinary basics that define their contents and the tight cohesion with the practice of the professions to which they give rise.

2 SUMMARY Duration: 1 year from the 22nd March 2018 to the 22nd February 2019 Deadline to apply: 2nd February 2018 Organizing institution: Quasar Design University - Tel Direction of the Master: Marco Amadio Council of the course: Marco Amadio, Marco Brivio, Gabriele Brivio, Antonio Luxardo, Stefano Milanesi, Benedetto Todaro Tutor of the Course: Floria Oliveri Scholarships: A scholarship to every 10 participants, that covers the 50% of the participation fee of the Master.

3 EDUCATIONAL TARGETS The target of the Master is to direct students through a serious and complete professional experience carried out on the entire cycle of conceiving and realization of recreational crafts to work with success in designing new models and in refitting, as free lance professionals or inside workshops and productive facilities. Following its tradition, the Quasar Design University offers educational programs that join efficient professional experiences with the opportunity to accomplish strong theoretical and methodical basis. In this way the graduate from the Master will be able to express an outstanding operational versatility and autonomy, optimizing his own professional chances. For this in the Yacht Design Master we deal with themes that, proceeding step by step towards specialisms, frame step by step the complexity of the theme inside clear reference systems to help the fast acquisition of familiarity with direct applications. Students will acquire familiarity with various types of boats, they will learn the recent evolution of boating: classification, nomenclature and standards; the characteristics of the boating trade, the main productive facilities, materials and building techniques in use. Reaching to the project they will be able to draw up the correct distribution of weights and the internal functional partition of a boat; they will know how to efficiently use, in the project, the proper CAD tools; they will be able to chose the most proper method to build surfaces suitable for the CAM transfer for the milling of pieces, they will be able to define the hydrostatic and hydrodynamic features of the project and to chose the most suitable water lines; they can look after the interior design, going through the calculation of the boat s structure, of the applicable powers and through the study of the most efficient equip ( in the case of sailing boats); they complete the education of basis and experiences of project management, the study of techniques and rules for the industrial reproduction, and furthermore rules and ways of protection of the design idea, and of the patrimony of the environment and of the sea.

4 PROGRAM PRESENTATION Teachers are high profile Architects, Designers and Engineers who currently work and collaborate with the most important national and international shipyards. Lessons and workshops will bring from the starting concept to the completion of the project in every detail reaching to the development of constructive drawings of a sail boat with a supporting engine and of two motorboats that can be built in the shipyard. At the lessons of methodology and of modelling 3D hulls and substructures, externals and interiors, will be put side by side to workshop techniques where they will right away start the ship design of the yacht. Teachers will guide and follow the development of individual projects. Production companies and shipyards, during the path, will help with their experience and will host students in technical surveys and also for stages to complete the educational value of the course. SUBJECT MATTER: Types of boats Processes of industrialization of production Custom Design Motorboats Sailboats Design of hills and water lines Boat equipment structure Exterior design Interior design Preliminary and executive design and production drawings Onboard assemblies Design of stamps for numerical control machines (CAD/CAM) Project management and design coordination Programs of assisted design Start-up of surfaces and NURBS design Definition of dynamic-static frameworks and calculation of frameworks and dislocations

6 1st MODULE 3D Modelling Training Programs of assisted drawing used: when available at the beginning of the course, there will be used the most updated releases of the most important software of the field. The training for the use of three-dimensional software of modelling is set as a real intensive course of NURBS modelling and rendering. After a period of training specifically focused on the practice of software, students will put them into practice for the development of the project. The course is aimed to the use of nurbs surfaces, to the creation of 2 level curves and their starting and tangency test. Every math will be created and tested following standards of ship design aimed to the creation of solid milling models. The models will be thought following the stamping techniques and tested with proper software following draft angles, tangency and co-planarity, every deck will be converted in a stamp dealing with the creation of joining elements and of stakes of joint-stamp. 2nd MODULE Ship and technical design yacht design In this module, divided in Engineering and Onboard assembly, students will deal with all the technical-regulatory and technical-functional matters that will be the basis for the following work. The subjects that students will deal with are: design of hull lines, supporting structures and register limits; regulation and ergonomic design in small spaces; onboard assembly and building techniques and serial prototyping. Furthermore, students will create, starting from the hull, Argonaut projects to prepare the building of the hulls in numerically controlled jigs. Students will deal with all the assembly with the creation of piping and main line, every implant will be correlated with technical and specific assembly documentation and in the electrical specific, cabling and techniques of marking and protection from external agents. Students will deal with matters about the protection from galvanic powers and new rising techniques, treatment of the air in small spaces and aeronautic ionization and ozonization systems.

7 3rd MODULE Structural and aesthetic design Design and styling and design research (yacht Series yacht Custom sail) Structural and aesthetic design - Design and styling Students will learn about building materials and techniques for externals and interior set up, structural supports such as their connections with the hull, systems of removable panelling for assembly, interior design and exterior design. Furthermore students will deal with all the classification of the ship and its design typology. Students will deal with different matters about the building of metal ships, especially for the ones lightened with aluminium, race ships built in composite, carbon and aramid (Kevlar); the building of interior complements in lightened materials and or directly integrated by stamp. Furthermore students will deal with the so said set-off design, that provides for the realization of all the furniture starting from a GRP (fiberglass) with the only addition of doors and refinishing decorations such as fine woods, panelling cladding and surfaces. This technique provides for the integration of all the onboard assembly that students dealt with in the Module 2. Design Research (yacht Series yacht Custom sail) At the end of the first four months, the student can decide if to get specialized in the three different types of ship building: serial ship design, custom or sail yacht. Students will analyze all the types of recreational craft in the category that goes from 30 to 55 (feet) differentiating serial products, semicustom boats and water lines until they reach to the interiors. Furthermore they will analyze all the series currently produced by the major Italian and foreigner shipyards to better understand the current trade and future prospects of development of the yacht series product. In the last past of the Module 3 students will develop the exam project, freely chosen by the student after that he deeply studied all the proposed types. They will be able to choose between different project themes.

8 4th MODULE Stage At the end of the previous modules each student that regularly and profitably took part to at least the 80% of the frontal lessons and workshops, will have the possibility to make a stage of 450 hours divided in 3 and half months inside companies, professional studios and shipyards that work and produce in the field since years, to complete the educational path, through a direct applying of the work done in the classroom in shipyards. The selection priorities of the final destinations of the period of stage is decided considering the valuations that students received during the frontal lessons and workshops. SELF-STUDYING AND ON LINE TUTORING During the Master, the student, coordinated by teachers, has to proceed with the design of his boat starting from the concept until the elaboration of technical drawings, and furthermore he has to create all the graphic documentation for the building of models, with the numeric control and with the hybrid technique (Argonaut sections). Each student can have a continuous on-line assistance and exchange documentations through with teachers and assistants. Each project will be constantly followed so that, once every part of it is completed, it can become an executive implement.
