Material relation to assess the crashworthiness of ship structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A ship collision accident can result in severe environmental damage and loss of life. Therefore the non-linear finite element method with shell elements is used to assess the crashworthiness of ship steel structures through collision simulations. However,
