Hull-superstructure interaction in optimised passenger ships
Ships and Offshore Structures, 2011The paper investigates the interaction between the hull and the superstructure in optimised passenger ships when exposed to bending loads. The coupled beam theory was applied to extend the basic beam theory to take into account the vertical and shear stiffness between various decks.

Fire Safety Onboard Passenger Ships
Design and Operation of Passenger Ships 2011, 2011The general arrangements inside passenger ships are getting more complicated to fulfil the passengers' expectations in comfort, luxury and variety of services. Hence, with the new designs, safety is becoming a target hard to achieve and especially regarding fire safety where the new materials and complexity in arrangement can pose great hazards ...

Tourism and passenger shipping
The Tourist Review, 1950Given the desire to travel, which is so markedly manifest in present day life, only the cost of transport and holiday services will set a limit to the rate of growth of tourist travel.

VACCINATION FOR SHIP PASSENGERS
Journal of the American Medical Association, 1950To the Editor:— The United States Public Health Service since April 1947 has required every passenger entering this country (except from the immediate Western Hemisphere) to present to the Port Health Medical Officer, at the port of entry, a valid vaccination certificate.

Gastrointestinal Illness on Passenger Cruise Ships
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1975Medical logs of 2,445 cruises taken by 38 vessels over a 20-month period beginning Jan 1, 1972, were reviewed. On 92% of the cruises, the recorded incidence of gastrointestinal illness was 1% or less; on 2% of cruises, it was 5% or greater. The actual incidence of gastrointestinal illness determined by a questionnaire survey of passengers sailing on ...

Odour Load from Passenger Ships
2008Odour emissions from passenger ships were noticed while making field investigation for ship yard in Finland. Local authors wanted to know odour load of ships because they have planned to build a new residential area near to passenger harbour. Odour load from ships were determined with field investigation, emission measurements and dispersion ...

Passenger Ship Evacuation – Design and Verification
2014This paper introduces the concept of escape and evacuation from passenger ships from a perspective of ship design and risk management. As part of that process, the use of computer simulation tools for analysing the evacuation performance of ships carrying large numbers of persons on board is becoming more relevant and useful.

Hull beam behaviour of passenger ships
Marine Structures, 1991Abstract Cut-outs for windows in the side plating of passenger ships reduce the shear stiffness of the hull girder considerably. As a consequence the hull girder will not fulfill the requirements of the engineering theory for stesses in beams. A simplified method is proposed for design purposes utilizing the finite element method.
