Drifting of the vessel

U ovom završnom radu detaljno je obrađena tema: zanošenje broda. Kretanje broda, odnosno plovidba, predstavlja temeljnu namjenu svakog broda jer se brodovi upravo i planiraju, projektiraju i grade kako bi plovili morima, rijekama i jezerima. Prije razmatranja plovidbe i zanošenja broda, kao svojevrsni uvod u glavnu temu razmatra se brod kao prijevozno sredstvo. Objašnjen je pojam broda, njegovi osnovni dijelovi i karakteristike ali i prikazani su uvjeti koje brod mora zadovoljiti kako bi mogao ploviti te svojstva hidrodinamike broda. Obilježja broda se zatim nadovezuju na njegove manevarske specifičnosti, odnosno na plovidbu. Postoji cijeli niz uređaja i brodske opreme pomoću kojih se direktno utječe na plovidbu i manevriranje. Najviše se radi o kormilu, brodskom vijku, sidrima i konopima. Objašnjeni su i uvjeti pod kojima za brod zaustavlja ili zaletava te mijenja brzinu i okrete. Također, postoje i vanjski čimbenici koji utječu na plovidbu broda od kojih su najvažniji: vjetar, morske struje, valovi i plitka voda. Naposljetku, detaljno se analizira i tumači zanošenje broda koje je posljedica utjecaja vjetra i morskih struja.In this thesis was scrutinized in detail theme: drifting of the vessel. Motion of the vessel, i.e. navigation, represents basic purpose of every vessel because vessels are planned, projected and built in order to navigate seas, rivers and lakes. Before consideration of navigation and drifting of the vessel, a sort of introduction in the main theme was considered vessel as mean of transport. It was explained definition of vessel, it's main parts and characteristics, but also were presented terms which vessel need to satisfy in order to navigate, as well as properties of hydrodynamics of the vessel. Then, characteristics of the vessel were linked to it's maneuver specificity, i.e. navigation. There are whole of series of devices and equipment of the vessel which directly influence navigation and maneuvering. Mostly these are ship's wheel, ship's screw, anchors and ropes. There were explained terms under which vessel stops or jump-offs and changes velocity and revs. Also, there are exterior factors which influence navigation of a vessel, the most important ones are: wind, sea currents, waves and shallow water. At the end, in detail was analysed drifting of the vessel which is consequence of influence of wind and sea currents
