The Properties of a Ship’s Compass in the Context of Ship Manoeuvrability [PDF]
Sensors, 2023 In evaluating the accuracy of most navigation measuring systems, it is accepted, as a rule, that measurement errors are characterised by a normal distribution. With reference to the compass, the approach of most producers is similar. However, in the case

Numerical study on the 6-DOF motions of ship turning in waves [PDF]
Scientific ReportsShips are often disturbed by waves when they are sailing on sea, and the influence is usually not negligible. When a ship is manoeuvering in waves, the wave will seriously threaten the ship’s navigation safety.

Review on Ship Manoeuvrability Criteria and Standards
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 Possible reduction of the installed power on newly designed merchant ships triggered by requirements of the Energy Efficiency Design Indices (EEDI) raised concern in possible safety degradation and revived interest in manoeuvrability standards to make ...

Manoeuvrability of a Large Cruise Ship after Damage for Safe Return to Port
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020 Free-running model tests were conducted using a scaled model of a large cruise ship with a damaged compartment, to investigate the effects of damage opening and floodwater on the manoeuvring performance in calm water and regular and irregular head waves.

The impact of underwater waves on ship manoeuvrability: a case study in a fjord [PDF]
Scientific ReportsIn 2019, the Motor Vessel Jaeger Arrow collided with the Grande-Anse Terminal wharf (Saguenay Fjord, Canada) during docking from unknown causes. However, the timeline of the incident and the ship’s behavior during docking suggest that underwater waves ...

Wind Influence on Ship Manoeuvrability – a Turning Circle Analysis [PDF]
TransNav, 2021 Ship manoeuvrability is a wide term which consist of number of various parameters. Knowing the influence of these parameters on ship manoeuvrability is a first condition to ensure and maintain safe navigation.

International Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2022 The loss of ship propulsion has been reported to be the most frequent cause of accidents at sea over the last few years. The loss of propulsive power has a notable effect on the behaviour of a ship during ship manoeuvring, and hence the manoeuvrability ...

Comparative analysis of the manoeuvrability performance for a 9000 tdw chemical/oil tanker
Annals of "Dunărea de Jos" University of Galaţi: Fascicle XI Shipbuilding, 2023 The concept of manoeuvrability is very important for efficient ship operation but also in ship safety. The aim of this paper is to test and perform a comparative analysis of manoeuvrability performance of a 9000 tdw chemical/oil tanker.

Numerical Study of Hydrodynamic Derivatives and Course Stability under Ship-Bank Interaction [PDF]
TransNav, 2018 Since ship-bank interaction affects the manoeuvrability of a ship navigating close to a bank, the determination of hydrodynamic derivatives is of great importance to assess the ship manoeuvrability.
