Book Stochastic Dynamic Response and Stability of Ships and Offshore Platforms

Download or read book Stochastic Dynamic Response and Stability of Ships and Offshore Platforms written by Yingguang Wang and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-11-25 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook investigates in detail the methods for stochastic dynamic response and stability analyses of nonlinear systems (especially ships and ocean engineering systems), elucidating the advantages and disadvantages of each of the methods (the statistical linearization method, the perturbation method, the Monte Carlo Simulation method, the numerical path integration method, the global geometric method and the first passage theory). Studies on stochastic dynamic analysis of nonlinear systems have attracted engineers and scientists from various disciplines, such as aeronautical, civil, mechanical and ocean engineering. Pursuing a systematic approach, this book establishes a fundamental framework for this topic, while emphasizing the importance of accurate and efficient analysis as well as the significant influence of choosing a suitable method in the design and optimization of various nonlinear engineering systems (especially ships and ocean engineering systems). The textbook is intended for upper undergraduate and graduate students who are interested in advanced dynamic analysis technologies, researchers investigating nonlinear systems under stochastic dynamic excitations, and civil/mechanical/structural/ocean engineers working on designing and optimization of real-world nonlinear engineering systems. The basis of English translation of this book from its Chinese original manuscript was done with the help of artificial intelligence. A subsequent human revision of the content was done by the author.

Book Ship Dynamics for Performance Based Design and Risk Averse Operations

Download or read book Ship Dynamics for Performance Based Design and Risk Averse Operations written by Spyros Hirdaris and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2021-04-07 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than a century and half ago, William Froude and his son Robert [1,2] conducted the first scientifically designed towing tank experiments using scaled ship models traveling in calm water or waves. Since then, advances in mathematics and technology have led to the development of various methods for the assessment of the dynamic behavior of ships. Yet, as we enter the 2nd decade of the 21st century the advent of goal-based regulations and the emergence of safe and sustainable shipping standards still confront our ability to understand the fundamentals and assure absolute ship safety in design and operations. To instigate renewed interest in the well-rehearsed subject of ship dynamics this Special Issue presents a collection of 12 high-quality research contributions with a focus on the prediction and analysis of the dynamic behavior of ships in a stochastic environment. The papers presented are co-authored by leading subject matter experts from Europe, the Far East, and the USA. These papers will be of interest to academics, practitioners, and regulators involved in the progression of ship science, technical services, and safety standards.

Book Contemporary Ideas on Ship Stability

Download or read book Contemporary Ideas on Ship Stability written by Vadim L. Belenky and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-01-01 with total page 931 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains a selection of research papers presented at the 11th and 12th International Ship Stability Workshops (Wageningen, 2010 and Washington DC, 2011) and the 11th International Conference on Stability of Ships and Ocean Vehicles (Athens, 2012). The book is directed toward the ship stability community and presents innovative ideas concerning the understanding of the physical nature of stability failures and methodologies for assessing ship stability. Particular interest of the readership is expected in relation with appearance of new and unconventional types of ships; assessment of stability of these ships cannot rely on the existing experience and has to be based on the first principles. As the complexity of the physical processes responsible for stability failure have increasingly made time-domain numerical simulation the main tool for stability assessment, particular emphasis is made on the development an application of such tools. The included papers have been selected by the editorial committee and have gone through an additional review process, with at least two reviewers allocated for each. Many of the papers have been significantly updated or expanded from their original version, in order to best reflect the state of knowledge concerning stability at the time of the book’s publication. The book consist of four parts: Mathematical Model of Ship Motions in Waves, Dynamics of Large Motions, Experimental Research and Requirements, Regulations and Operations.

Book The Effect of Weather on a Ship s Speed  U

Download or read book The Effect of Weather on a Ship s Speed U written by C. S. Nilsson and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The need for better dead-reckoning data from several trials on HMAS KIMBLA, which is not fitted with a speed log, led to this attempt to model the effect of wind and sea-state on ship's speed. Weather data comprised only normal ship's log observations, which imposed a constraint on the factors considered. In particular, no specific data on wave and swell periods were recorded. Equations were set up to allow for augmentation of resistance due to waves, swell and applied rudder. In addition, the effects of the direct push of wind and waves on the forward and transverse components of ship's velocity were considered. The parameters were fitted to observed data on the set of the ship in varying weather conditions. Some recommendations for future work are included."--Summary/Abstract
