How did the Titanic break in half ?

Hmm, no!

Just because it says something somewhere , that doesn't make it physically true . Riveting would be better if the plates and the rivets were both equally in a state of heated expansion .

In engineering we heat fixtures to remove stubborn fixings such as a bolt . The surrounding metal expansion allowing the bolt to become more free . Basic scientific thermodynamics .


A (T) fixing is an inner plate that is formed as a T shape . This fixing is placed between two adjoining panels from the interior , the ''leg'' facing outwards .


Then a few welding tacks are done to hold it in place

The leg is then grinded down to a flat finish from the exterior

The weld is then completed in the form of seams

For additional strength depending on requirement , rivets can be added to the over hang T-flap

-T- demo (obvious the T is flush against the plates )

Grinded?

Wrong context ! You are discussing a drop ship which is not the ship building we were originally discussing .

Where a deck is lowered into the water by design specifics .

The origin of this thread is the Titanic !

A poor design that used lots of rivets that were not tightly fitted as suggested in the build .

A hot rivet would cool down and in essence contract in size leaving possible play in the design .

I suppose it could of been worse though , as a riveted twins towers and poor quality grade steel !

Shouldn't that be "rivet's"?

That is somewhat a contradictory statement my dear , the law of physics do not differ to agree with ones owns subjective understanding .



A rather sexist statement !

You can assume I am a diversiologist and consultant , that is my scientific background . As a diversiologist I have intricate knowledge of several sciences , this includes design and construction based on quantum ergonomic's .

'diversiologist' - hahaha - nothing showing there in any online dictionary. OK I'm going back to 'troll' rather than 'somewhat strange'. The again, maybe both.

He has various personae and is constantly experimenting with them. Not all are full of nonsense pseudo-maths. But all have the hallmark of introducing bits of new nonsense at strategic intervals, just to keep the dialogue going.

I don't claim this is unique to Theorist of course.........

A plane is an over head view while a line is a side view of a plane .

A plane is a plane regardless of your point of view. A sheet of paper may appear to be a line from a certain point of view but it's still a plane.
A flat line and a water line are 2 dimensional views used for a basic artistic impression !

A water line is the intersection of a solid surface with a plane. If the ship was a sphere, the water line would be a circle, etc.

Scientific terminology is not made up ! The flat line has a bow plane , stern plane , port and starboard plane . I'm sure you will be more familiar with those terms .

Then why are you making up terms instead of using the correct ones?

The term you are searching for is "freeboard" and it's not a straight line.
You are discussing a drop ship which is not the ship building we were originally discussing .

A drop ship isn't a real thing. You likely heard the term while watching science fiction and it got stuck in your head.
A hot rivet would cool down and in essence contract in size leaving possible play in the design .

That's how all rivets work and no, they don't leave "play in the design."

From what you have posted so far, no, you don't. Case in point -
quantum ergonomic's .

A drop ship isn't a real thing from who's view ?

A boat wasn't a real thing until somebody designed and created one !

My boat designs are unsinkable !

I'm reminded of a submarine called the Hunley, which sank three times killing most of its crew each time. It was operated by cranks - though its designers weren't quite as cranky as you.

Yep. And a drop ship still isn't a real thing until someone designs and builds one.

Your boat designs are unexistent.

My boat designs exist in my mind where nobody can steal them with additional other designs of other things .

When I said unsinkable , that is a 100% true statement .

As I've already explained I am the CSO or BSA !

Well perhaps they should of tried the BSA which deals with all aspects of physics and design .

Interesting logic !

Perhaps you are an intelligence gatherer also and you are playing the good cop , bad cop routine !

There is many people on the internet trying to gain my intelligence by various futile methods .
