The dynamics of the floodwater and the damaged ship in waves [PDF]
The interaction between the dynamics of the floodwater and the damaged ship in waves is investigated by applying an integrated method, which couples a seakeeping solver and a Navier-Stokes solver. To reveal the effects of the water flooding and the sloshing on the damaged ship behaviour, the motion of a Ro-Ro ferry in regular beam seas is simulated ...

Global wave loads on a damaged ship [PDF]
A computational tool was applied based on a two dimensional linear method to predict the hydrodynamic loads for damaged ships. Experimental tests on a ship model have also been carried out to predict the hydrodynamic loads in various design conditions. The results of the theoretical method and experimental tests are compared to validate the theoretical

3D Simulation of Ship Motions to Support the Planning of Rescue Operations on Damaged Ships [PDF]
AbstractThe paper describes a software system to simulate the ship motions in a crisis situation. The scenario consists of a damaged ship subjected to wave excitation forces generated by a random sea state. The simulation is displayed in an interactive Virtual Environment allowing the visualization of the ship motions.

Consequence analyses of collision-damaged ships - damage stability, structural adequacy and oil spills [PDF]
A ship collision accident may pose a threat to human lives, the environment and material assets. A damaged ship can suffer from the loss of ship stability, reduced global structural strength, and the loss of the integrity of internal tanks carrying ...

Reducing whale-ship collisions by better estimating damages to ships
Collisions between ships and whales raise environmental, safety, and economic concerns. The management of whale-ship collisions, however, lacks a holistic approach, unlike the management of other types of wildlife-vehicle collisions, which have been more standardized for several years now.

A Fast Simulation Method for Damaged Ship Dynamics [PDF]
Ship accidents that entail flooding may lead to disastrous consequences which could be avoided or mitigated based on the knowledge of damaged ship dynamics. The dynamic behaviour of a damaged hull is a complex phenomenon involving the interaction of the flooded water and the ship motions.

Preliminary tests of a damaged ship for CFD validation [PDF]
ABSTRACTOne of the most critical issues in naval architecture these days is the operational safety. Among many factors to be considered for higher safety level requirements, the hull stability in intact and damaged conditions is the first to ensure for both commercial and military vessels.

Seakeeping experiments on damaged ship
The aim of this paper is to present results of seakeeping experiments performed on a damaged ship hull and to compare them with numerical analysis results. The assumed damage opening in the ship hull, i.e. the damage extent, is determined based on probability distribution functions for damage size and location as specified by the Marine Environment ...

Ultimate limit state analysis of a double-hull tanker subjected to biaxial bending in intact and collision-damaged conditions [PDF]
This study presents a comparison between nonlinear finite element analysis (FEA) and the Smith method of Fujikubo et al. (2012). The objective was to compare the accuracy and computation effort of the two methods for a double-hull tanker under biaxial ...
