On the Effect of Uncertainties on Onboard Progressive Flooding Simulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Nowadays, the quasi-static techniques devoted to progressive flooding simulation are present in the literature. Most of them can be applied onboard to support crew decisions after a flooding casualty. However, in real scenarios, the input parameters, adopted to carry out time domain simulations, are often not accurately assessed or even unknown.

Adaptive time step in simulation of progressive flooding

Ocean Engineering, 2014
Abstract Time accurate simulation of progressive flooding inside a ship often requires a short time step. However, after the initial phases, as the flooding progresses to undamaged compartments, the flow rates decrease and much longer time step could be used. Yet the collapsing of non-watertight structures may cause additional phases of fast flooding,

A new calculation technique for onboard progressive flooding simulation [PDF]

open access: yesShip Technology Research, 2018
During a flooding emergency, the master has to take hard decisions with serious impact on passengers and crew safety. A fast and reliable time domain simulation of the progressive flooding process can significantly aid the master in choosing the right counteractions immediately after the damage occurrence.

Investigation of the Mighty Servant 3 Accident by a Progressive Flooding Method [PDF]

open access: yesVolume 1: Offshore Technology, 2013
The semi-submersible heavy-lift vessel Mighty Servant 3 sank off the port of Luanda, Angola in the morning of December 6th, 2006 during a ballast operation to offload the drilling platform Aleutian Key. The official investigations carried out after the accident identified an error in the control of the submerging ballast operations as the direct cause ...

A Comparison of Different Linearized Formulations for Progressive Flooding Simulations in Full-Scale [PDF]

open access: yesProcedia Computer Science, 2021
In the framework of Industry 4.0, simulation plays a key role in processing sensors data to predict the future behaviour of a complex system. Aiming to increase ship efficiency and safety, simulations can be used in normal conditions but also during an ...

International benchmark study on numerical simulation of flooding and motions of a damaged cruise ship [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Ocean Research, 2022
Large cruise ships can carry 10 000 persons onboard, and consequently, survivability of the ship in the event of a flooding accident is essential. Many designers are already conducting advanced damage stability analyses beyond the regulatory requirements.

The Transient and Progressive Flooding Stages of Damaged Ro-Ro Vessels: A Systematic Review of Entailed Factors [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering, 2011
Roll-on/roll-off vessels appear to be sensitive to rapid capsizing due to an abrupt ingress of water caused by maritime accidents. As a result of the damage creation, the flooded ship can experience intermediate stages, which might be more devastating ...
