Abstract: Sinkage and trim, which often occur to ships moving in shallow water, do not only have an effect on the ship–ship hydrodynamic interaction forces but also increase the risk of grounding. Potential flow-based online calculation ...

Abstract: The situation of two ships maneuvering in the vicinity is not so rare, and the significant hydrodynamic interaction effect always poses a threat to navigation safety in these conditions. The assessment of the Distance at ...

Abstract: The aim of this study was to analyze the ultimate strength of stiffened aluminum panels by the nonlinear finite element method. A new type of stiffened aluminum alloy panel has been designed, which has fixed longitudinal ...

Abstract: In hydroelastic model tests, segmented ship models are usually used to make sure that the model scale and the full size ship satisfy the similarity law of structural natural frequency and distribution of ship bending ...

Abstract: The objective of this study is to investigate the variation of neutral axis of ship hull girder due to asymmetric geometry or asymmetric load, and its influence on the ultimate strength (ULS) of hull girder. In order to ...
