This uprising trend is a direct consequence of the global demand for commercially and militarily efficient vessels that offer high speed, potential for improved Seakeeping at speed, relatively low hydrodynamic resistance in waves and a more useable deck area. The configuration and hull geometry of catamarans are very critical to achieve improved seakeeping and other hydrodynamic performances. The Round Bilge hull form is one of the most prominent hull geometries in use for the design of displacement-type multi-hull vessels. An alternative hullform series to the Round Bilge, catamarans, named the Deep-V Catamaran series (DVC), has been developed recently at Newcastle University. Early studies on the DVC concept based on this series indicate that the hull form may have better resistance performance than the Round Bilge. However, other important characteristics of this concept such as the motions and wave-induced load response characteristics are still unknown. There is also a lack of understanding of the general hydrodynamic characteristics of the DVC concept in comparison to the Round Bilge hull form. This study contributes to the understanding of the motions and wave induced load response characteristics of the DVC concept. It is also intended to advance the structural design methodology of the DVC concept and its subsequent application as better alternative to the Round Bilge hull form. The study involved the experimental and numerical investigations of the motions and wave- induced load response characteristics of the DVC concept by using a prototype model of “The Princess Royal” which is the current research vessel of Newcastle University. The experimental studies involved the motions and wave-induced response measurements in regular waves at both zero and forward speed conditions. The results obtained were validated using alternative potential flow-based numerical codes in frequency domain. The benchmark study indicates that the numerical codes are capable of producing acceptable results. A comparative study using a representative model of the Round Bilge hull form with the DVC model was conducted in order to establish a direct basis for the comparison of the motion and hydrodynamic load performances. The results obtained from this comparison reveal that the DVC may have better seakeeping characteristics and is less sensitive to wave loads than the Round Bilge hull concept in critical heading conditions. A further comparison of the experimentally validated numerical predicted loads with those obtained using the International Association of Classification Societies (IACS) approach was completed. The study confirms that the IACS approach over predicts the loads by up to 40% in Beam Seas and Quartering Seas when other components of IACS rules are not considered. A simplified structural analysis of the DVC model using the Finite Element Method was also completed to demonstrate the effects of the predicted loads on the strength of the hull structure with emphasis on the cross-deck structure, which is the most sensitive structural element of the vessel. Overall, the study highlights the promising characteristics of the DVC concept in comparison to the Round Bilge hull form and provides data required for the preliminary design of catamarans using this concept. ii Table of Contents Acknowledgements ..................................................................................................................... i Abstract ...................................................................................................................................... ii Table of Contents ..................................................................................................................... iii Table of Figures .................................................................................................................... viii List of Tables .......................................................................................................................... xvi Nomenclature ...................................................................................................................... xviii Abbreviation ............................................................................................................................. xx 1 Chapter One: Introduction ......................................................................................... 1 1.1 Introduction` ................................................................................................................... 1 1.2 Background and Motivation ........................................................................................... 1 1.3 Aims and Objectives ...................................................................................................... 7 1.4 Layout of Thesis ............................................................................................................. 7 1.5 Summary ........................................................................................................................ 9 2 Chapter Two: Background of Multihull Vessel and Literature Review ................. 9 2.1 Introduction .................................................................................................................... 9 2.2 Review of the Deep-V and the Round Bilge Catamaran Concepts .............................. 10 2.2.1 The Round Bilge Hull Form Concept .......................................................................... 10 2.2.2 The Deep-V Hull Form Concept .................................................................................. 12 2.3 Review of Motions and Wave-induced Loads on Catamaran ...................................... 15 2.4 Review of Structural Modelling and Design Considerations for Multihull Vessels .... 21 2.4.1 Considerations for Materials Behaviour ...................................................................... 22 2.4.2 The Structural Design Methodology ............................................................................ 24 2.5 Conclusions .................................................................................................................. 33 3 Chapter Three: Theoretical Background for Motions and Loads ........................ 34 3.1 Introduction .................................................................................................................. 34 3.2 Description of the Numerical Predictions Software ..................................................... 35 iii 3.2.1 The MAESTRO-Wave ................................................................................................. 35 3.2.2 The PRECAL ..............................................................................................................

A need for reliable and efficient ship designs facilitates knowledge accumulation and the development of tools for the assessment of hull structural responses to acting loads. Important in this regard, ship design criteria are the ultimate and residual strengths of a hull that determine whether a ship may be safely operated in intact and accidentally damaged conditions. Thus, an accurate and reliable procedure for estimating a ship’s strength accounting for all actual foreseeable scenarios and reasonably practicable conditions is necessary. The main objective of this thesis is to develop a new precise and time-efficient methodology for the assessment of the ultimate and residual strength under vertical and biaxial loading conditions.

Patrick Kaeding, University Rostock Szczecin, February 2012 Analysis of ultimate capacity of the structural elements of single hull VLCC subject to corrosion 3 ABSTRACT During the last few decades, the emphasis in structural design has been moving from the allowable stress design to the limit state design, because the latter approach has many more advantages. A limit state is formally defined as a condition for which a particular structural member or an entire structure fails to perform the function that it has been designed for. In order to ensure critical for economy and safe design of a ship’s hull, it is necessary to accurately evaluate the capacity of the hull girder considering extreme loads. The objective of this project is to perform the strength analysis for tank structures, according to the Det Norske Veritas (DNV) Rules and Regulations; following the IACS Common Structural Rules (CSR). The general plan and methodology of the project are presented in the report (dissertation).

Since relative errors of calculations of the current approach to the elastic section modulus of hull girder, which is taken as literature with respect to the experimental data are within 3%, it is the primary surveying index of the longitudinal bending shown that the proposed approach can be adopted for the estimation strength, can be achieved by using the linear bending of the ultimate bending strength of ship hull in sagging or hogging theory.
