Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication presents the methods for the design of ships' structures. These methods are applicable to any medium or large vessel designed by direct calculation, as well as to the warship hulls on which the book was originally based, as these are invariably designed without recourse to classification society rules. Taking as its starting point an assumed functional specification, it shows how a structure can be created to meet this requirement.

Download or read book Load and Global Response of Ships written by J.J Jensen and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2001-08-08 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Load and Global Response of Ships gives an introductory background to naval architecture statistics and strength of materials. Each subject is treated in detail; starting from the first principle. The aim of this title was to derive and present the necessary theoretical framework for predicting the extreme loads and the corresponding hull girder stresses that a ship may be subjected to during its operational lifetime.Although some account is given to reliability analysis, the present treatment has to be supplemented with methods for detailed stress evaluation and for structural strength assessment before a complete structural reliability analysis can be carried out.The classification societies have issued rules and regulations for a proper structural analysis of a ship and selection of the scantlings. Previously, those rules rather explicitly gave formulae for the thickness of the hull plantings, the size of the stiffeners etc. Such empirical rules must necessarily be rather conservative in order to apply to a large variety of ships. With the advent of powerful computers, the rules have changed. Today, the naval architect can perform the structural analysis using mainly rational methods based on first principles. The classification society may then specify proper safety factors against local global failure modes, taking into account the consequences of failure and the analysis procedure used. A cruder method of analysis then necessitates a larger safety factor. Therefore the effort made by the experienced naval architect to perform a detailed structural analysis will be returned not just by a rational structural arrangement but also often in lower weight of the ship and thus a higher payload throughout the operational lifetime of the ship.This analysis has attempted to make explicit one way in which designers limit the design space by creating rules to which they expect users to adhere. It is also an attempt to encourage designers to reconsider the 'rules of use' that they have used in their designs, so as to reconceptualise potential usage. This can help design behaviour where rule use is not blindly followed.By making these rules visible, it is possible to expose the limitations of current technology, and development design solutions that do not restrict use to the 'normal' case of action. Rules are useful to designers because they are simplifications of activity. Rules encode the normal case, and these are simplistic representations of work that are, in many cases, accurate enough for the purpose of design. However, encoding behaviour in rules has dangers in that they do not encompass the whole range of behaviours that can be performed. Using examples, this title shows that being able to break rules means that people are able to engage in a richer more flexible set of actions (and therefore more appropriate to contingency) than when they are constrained to a limited range.

Download or read book Advanced Structural Safety Studies written by Jeom Kee Paik and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-07-25 with total page 664 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes principles, industry practices and evolutionary methodologies for advanced safety studies, which are helpful in effectively managing volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) environments within the framework of quantitative risk assessment and management and associated with the safety and resilience of structures and infrastructures with tolerance against various types of extreme conditions and accidents such as fires, explosions, collisions and grounding. It presents advanced computational models for characterizing structural actions and their effects in extreme and accidental conditions, which are highly nonlinear and non-Gaussian in association with multiple physical processes, multiple scales, and multiple criteria. Probabilistic scenario selection practices and applications are presented. Engineering practices for structural crashworthiness analysis in extreme conditions and accidents are described. Multidisciplinary approaches involving advanced computational models and large-scale physical model testing are emphasized. The book will be useful to students at a post-graduate level as well as researchers and practicing engineers.

Download or read book Added Masses and Forces on Two Bodies Approaching Central Impact in an Inviscid Fluid written by Louis Landweber and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In several papers, which will be referenced, a procedure based on integral equations has been developed and applied for determining the interaction forces on two bodies approaching central impact in an inviscid fluid. The present work was undertaken to evaluate the accuracy of the results from that procedure by applying it to a pair of circles and a pair of spheres with which one could obtain solutions, as accurate as desired, by the method of successive images. A second purpose was to refine the procedure so that accurate solutions could be obtained at closer distances than heretofore. Solutions by the method of images, given by Hicks and Herman over 100 years ago, are not very clear, and since we have significantly extended their theory in the present work, it seemed appropriate to include a new derivation which we consider more rational. The extensions of the theory consists of: 1) a truncation correction of the infinite series of the doublet strengths for the added masses and their derivatives, which can then be calculated accurately with a moderate number of terms even when the gap between the bodies is very small; 2) asymptotic formulas for the added masses and their derivatives at small gaps which show that, for circles, the derivatives with respect to a parameter asymptotically proportional to the square root of the gap, are finite, and that derivatives with respect to the gap approach infinity inversely as the square root of the gap; 3) a treatment of the case of a circular cylinder or a sphere, or bodies of arbitrary shape approaching a wall, showing that the forces on the body and wall are repulsive and of equal magnitude.
