Energy Saving of LNG Carriers

Journal of the Society of Naval Architects of Japan, 1993
In tankers and bulkers, energy savings made remarkable progress after the oil crisis by means of size enlargement, speed reduction, propeller rpm reduction or switching the main propulsion plant from steam turbine to diesel engine. However, in LNG carriers, which are high-technology and high-price ships, there are many commercial requirements, and size

Scantling multi-objective optimisation of a LNG carrier

Marine Structures, 2010
Numerous real-world problems related to ship design can be solved by various alternatives. However, the scantling design has conflicting objectives such as minimum production cost, minimum weight and maximum moment of inertia (stiffness). Therefore a multi-purpose solution had to be settled in order to meet all these requirements at once.
