Seakeeping performances of an AHTS ship

open access: yesAnnals of "Dunărea de Jos" University of Galaţi: Fascicle XI Shipbuilding, 2016
The importance of the evaluations of the response amplitude operators as well as of the accelerations in several points of interest on board of ship is directly linked to the index of operation of a floating structure. The higher the sea state to operate, the better the ship efficiency and operability.

The hydrodynamic and dynamic motion analysis of a damaged ship

open access: yes, 2008
The hydrodynamic analysis and motion response of a damaged ship requires a novel generalisation of the methodsnormally applied to intact ships or other floating structures. Damaged ship statistics are used to provide likely damage scenarios.

Development of the Seakeeping Performance Evaluation System Built-On-Ship (1)-Establishment of the Relative Dangerousness D/B for Factors on Seakeeping Performance-

open access: yesJournal of Korean navigation and port research, 2004
The final goal of this research is to establish the relative dangerousness D/B for factors on seakeeping performance. This D/B is, essential to develope the seakeeping performance evaluation system built-on-ship. The system is composed of the apparatus for measuring a vertical acceleration to be generated by the ship`s motions, computer for calculating
