Conception and Evolution of the Probabilistic Methods for Ship Damage Stability and Flooding Risk Assessment
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering Article Conception and Evolution of the Probabilistic Methods for Ship Damage Stability and Flooding Risk Assessment Dracos Vassalos * and M. P. Mujeeb-Ahmed Maritime Safety Research Centre (MSRC), Department of Naval Architecture, Ocean and Marine Engineering, University of Strathclyde, Glasgow G4 0LZ, UK; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The paper provides a full description and explanation of the probabilistic method for ship damage stability assessment from its conception to date with focus on the probability of survival (s-factor), explaining pertinent assumptions and limitations and describing its evolution for specific application to passenger ships, using contemporary numerical and experimental tools and data. It also provides comparisons in results between statistical and direct approaches and makes recommendations on how these can be reconciled with better understanding of the implicit assumptions in the approach for use in ship design and operation. Evolution over the latter years to support pertinent regulatory developments relating to flooding risk (safety level) assessment as well as research in this direction with a focus on passenger ships, have created a new focus that combines all flooding hazards (collision, bottom and side groundings) to assess potential loss of life as a means of guiding further research and developments on damage stability for this ship type. The paper concludes by providing recommendations on the way forward for ship damage stability and Citation: Vassalos, D.; flooding risk assessment. Mujeeb-Ahmed, M.P.

Stability Analysis Based on Theoretical Data and Inclining Test Results for a 1200 GT Coaster Vessel
Proceeding of Marine Safety and Maritime Installation (MSMI 2018) Stability Analysis Based on Theoretical Data and Inclining Test Results for a 1200 GT Coaster Vessel Siti Rahayuningsih1,a,*, Eko B. Djatmiko1,b, Joswan J. Soedjono 1,c and Setyo Nugroho 2,d 1 Departement of Ocean Engineering, Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember, Surabaya, Indonesia 2 Department of Marine Transportation Engineering, Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember, Surabaya, Indonesia a. [email protected] *corresponding author Keywords: coaster vessel, final stability, preliminary stability. Abstract: 1200 GT Coaster Vessel is designed to mobilize the flow of goods and passengers in order to implement the Indonesian Sea Toll Program. This vessel is necessary to be analysed its stability to ensure the safety while in operation. The stability is analysed, firstly by theoretical approach (preliminary stability) and secondly, based on inclining test data to derive the final stability. The preliminary stability is analysed for the estimated LWT of 741.20 tons with LCG 23.797 m from AP and VCG 4.88 m above the keel. On the other hand, the inclining test results present the LWT of 831.90 tons with LCG 26.331 m from AP and VCG 4.513 m above the keel. Stability analysis on for both data is performed by considering the standard reference of IMO Instruments Resolution A. 749 (18) Amended by MSC.75 (69) Static stability, as well as guidance from Indonesian Bureau of Classification (BKI). Results of the analysis indicate that the ship meets the stability criteria from IMO and BKI. However results of preliminary stability analysis and final stability analysis exhibit a difference in the range 0.55% to 11.36%. -

Techet Fall 2004 Archimedes’s Principle and Static Stability “Any object, wholly or partly immersed in a fluid, is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.” “The apparent loss in weight of a body immersed in a fluid is equal to the weight of the displaced fluid.” I. Archimedes’s Principle: The force on a body due to pressure alone (in the absence of viscous forces) K F = ∫∫ p nˆ ds (3.1) S where pressure is a function of depth below the free surface: p(z) = −ρgz .

Miniscale Modelling of Gyroscopic Effect with Application to Sheep Steering
IOSR Journal of Mechanical and Civil Engineering (IOSR-JMCE) e-ISSN: 2278-1684,p-ISSN: 2320-334X, Volume 11, Issue 1 Ver. I (Jan. 2014), PP 47-56 www.iosrjournals.org Miniscale Modelling Of Gyroscopic Effect with Application to Sheep Steering. Prof.N.B.Totala1,Kanchan Rode2, Purushottam Shelke3 , MayurTope4, Vaibhav Mahadik5 1(Assistant professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering, MIT Academy of Engineering, Alandi (D), Pune, Maharashtra,412105) 2,3,4,5(Department of Mechanical Engineering,MIT Academy of Engineering, Alandi(D), Pune, Maharashtra,412105) Abstract: A gyroscope is a device for measuring or maintaining orientation, based on the principles of momentum. Mechanically, a gyroscope is a spinning wheel or disc in which the axle is free to assume any orientation. Although this orientation does not remain fixed, it changes in response to an external torque much less and in a different direction, than it would without the large angular momentum associated with the disc's high rate of spin and inertia. Ships or sea vessels require stabilization when they face heavy sea waves. A disturbing couple acts on the ships due to sea waves, hence stabilization of ship is necessary. Due to sea waves, ship will either roll or pitch. The amplitude of rolling is much higher than amplitude of pitching. The gyroscope can be used for reducing the amplitude of rolling and hence, stabilizing the ship. The fundamental requirement of gyroscopic stabilization is that, the gyroscopic must be made to precess by some external means (example: electric motor) in such a way that the relative gyroscopic couple exerted by the rotor should oppose any disturbing couple which may act on the ship. -
Analysis of Active Gyro Based Roll-Stabilization of Slender Boat Hulls
Analysis of Active Gyro Based Roll-Stabilization of Slender Boat Hulls Naval Architecture TAO ZHANG Master of Science Thesis Stockholm, Sweden 2014 Analysis of Active Gyro Based Roll-Stabilization of Slender Boat Hulls Tao Zhang [email protected] Academic Supervisor: Ivan Stenius Examiner: Jakob Kuttenkeuler Date: March 4, 2014 KTH, School of Engineering Sciences (SCI), Aeronautical and Vehicle Engineering, Naval Systems Stockholm, Sweden 1 ABSTRACT Currently, traffic congestion often happens in big cities every day. People demand a new conceptual vehicle which has a slender shape to reduce space, lightweight structure to decrease the fuel consumption and innovative technology to adapt for multiple transportation conditions. NEWT is such a conceptual amphibious vehicle that satisfies people's requirements. However, everything has two sides. Slender shape and high centre of gravity will result in instability. When NEWT runs in low speed, it easily gets rolled over. In order to make up for its drawback, gyro-stabilizer has been applied to the vehicle. By tilting the rotational gyro, it generates a counter torque counteracting the roll motion to make the vehicle recover to an upright position. Therefore this master thesis analyses the original stability of the vehicle and the possible improvement by adding the gyro system for both land and water-conditions. The model can handle the problem that the vehicle meets periodic disturbance forces, such as wave excitation force and wind force. 2 FOREWORD First I really appreciate my supervisor Ivan Stenius for his help. His constant feedback, comments, discussion, and encouragement always enlighten me and show me the right way. I would also like to acknowledge my teachers: Jakob Kuttenkeuler, Anders Rosén, Karl Garme, and Stefan Hallström.
