Analysis and Design of Marine Structures: including CD-ROM
Published 6 days, 14 hours ago
Description
Examines how heavy weather avoidance maneuvers performed by ship captains influence the extreme wave pressure exerted on marine vessels. Published as part of the MARSTRUCT 2009 conference proceedings, the research utilizes hydrodynamic analysis to compare traditional design formulas with direct calculations of local loads on bulk carriers and VLCCs. The authors propose several mathematical models to adjust wave scatter diagrams, reflecting how ships typically bypass the most severe sea states to prevent damage. Findings indicate that accounting for these operational shifts can significantly lower long-term load predictions, though results are highly sensitive to roll damping assumptions and specific wave data sources. Ultimately, the source provides a framework for integrating vessel maneuvering habits into the structural design and safety assessment of large ships.
