principal investigator conducted the 1st Model Submarine Design & Testing Workshop during May 5-9 of 2004 at the SeaTech Campus in the Department of Ocean Engineering at Florida Atlantic University. In the 2004 workshop, students learned how to design, build and test model mechanical submarines. A total of 23 competitive high Page 14.93.2 2009 ASEE Southeast Section Conferenceschool students (GPA at least 3.0) with interest in engineering, math, and science were selected to participatein this workshop: 20 of them were in Grade 9 from South Broward High, one from North Miami Beach High,one from Boynton

students to model only the middle portion of their design. This results in whatMAESTRO terms a cut model, and it provides for weights and end moments to be added. Thisapproach makes it possible for the students to create and evaluate a structural model withreasonable effort. This approach also facilitates student comparison of manually computed mid-ship section stresses with the MAESTRO computed stresses. An example of a student cut modelis shown in figure 7. Figure 7. Student Cut ModelGraduate school use of MAESTROAt MIT, students in the graduate ship design curriculum take courses in naval architecture,marine engineering and ship structures as well as hydrodynamics, acoustics, materialsengineering, and design

One ended upturning back in the middle of the voyage and another took almost 24 hours to get to the scene.There are many theories on the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald. The two most prominent areissues related to the severity of the storm and issues surrounding the maintenance of the boat.8The way that the boat was found split in two, with the sections separated by more than 170 feet,suggests that the boat took on a lot of water quickly and unevenly.9 The Edmund Fitzgerald’sfreeboard had been decreased due to an authorized change to her Plimsoll mark, thus it would beeasier to take on water in high seas
