Maxsurf 1 + Maxsurf 2
What is a Bundle?
A bundle is a collection of courses we have wrapped up for you based on criteria such as complementarity, reinforcement, and/or enlargement of the subjects covered in each one.
Bundles enable the development of different learning paths by bringing together courses relevant to a specific area of knowledge. With bundles, we can guide you more effectively on your journey.
What is included in this bundle?
This bundle gives you access to the following courses:
Maxsurf 1 introduces the fundamentals of vessel modeling with Maxsurf Modeler, the starting point for most design projects. Students will learn how to create 3D hull models from existing linesplans, perform parametric transformations, and model structural elements such as frames, decks, and reinforcements. Through two complete projects—a sharp-bilge Pilot Boat and a round-bilge Sailing Boat—they will master the process of building detailed, accurate hull geometries and interpreting the resulting data to validate their models.
Maxsurf 2 builds upon the skills developed in the first course and expands into advanced design and analysis. It covers three key modules—Modeler, Stability, and VPP—guiding students through vessel design from scratch, without a linesplan, and applying naval engineering principles throughout. Participants will perform a range of hydrostatic and stability analyses in Maxsurf Stability and evaluate sailing performance using Maxsurf VPP. By completing the course, students will gain a comprehensive understanding of Maxsurf’s core applications and be able to model, simulate, and analyze complete vessel designs with confidence.
Software License
Navalapp Students enrolled in one or more Courses may be eligible for free access to Maxsurf, subject to specific conditions. Click here to review the eligibility criteria.
Organization
The courses are video-based and on demand, so you can learn at your own pace, anytime and anywhere. Each course includes videos, quizzes, and downloadable materials, along with access to a private virtual classroom where you can interact with instructors and fellow students. Upon completing all lessons, passing the quizzes, and having your final assignment approved, you will receive a Course Certificate.
We look forward to welcoming you to the courses!
RINA Endorsement
After a thorough evaluation, the Royal Institution of Naval Architects (RINA) has determined that Navalapp’s course Maxsurf 1 meets its standards for Continuing Professional Development (CPD). As a result, RINA has formally recognized the course and issued a Certificate of Endorsement.
As part of the evaluation process, RINA reviewed various aspects of the course, including its learning objectives, content, and structure; the accuracy and currency of the materials; student feedback; the quality of supporting resources; the instructor qualifications; the assessment methods used; and the overall organizational standards maintained by Navalapp.
Maxsurf 2 is currently under assessment by RINA.
