  2. 1. Fatigue Assessment of Container Ships – a Contribution to Direct Calculation Procedures

    Author : Zhiyuan Li; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; finite element analysis; container ship; warping stress; time-domain method; nonlinear panel method; full-scale measurement; side-shell structures; ship routing; stress concentration; fatigue;

    Abstract : Within the field of marine structural engineering, the introduction of new materials and material classes, the development of production techniques and new design, and new requirements imposed by authorities are examples which justify a need for continuous revisit and update of fatigue assessment methodologies of marine structures. This thesis contributes to the development and improvement of fatigue assessment methodology for ship structures. READ MORE

  5. 3. Multi-Agent Systems for Container Terminal Management

    Author : Lawrence Henesey; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; container terminal; multi-agent systems; mult-agent based simulation; container terminal management;

    Abstract : This thesis describes research concerning the application of multi-agent based simulation for evaluating container terminal management operations. The growth of containerization, i.e., transporting goods in a container, has created problems for ports and container terminals. READ MORE

  6. 4. Direct Calculation of Wave-Induced Loads and Fatigue Damage of Container Vessels

    Author : Zhiyuan Li; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fatigue; stress concentration factor; direct calculation; Container ship; fatigue routing; wave-induced torsion.; extreme loading; nonlinear wave loads;

    Abstract : Container ships and their rules for fatigue design are in several ways differentcompared with other types of commercial ships such as tankers and bulk carriers. Forexample, most modern container ships have a pronounced bow flare and an overhangstern. READ MORE

  7. 5. Probabilistic Assessment of the Risk of Cargo Shifting Onboard Ships in Waves

    Author : Anna Ryrfeldt; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ship roll; cargo shifting; probabilistic model; waves; ship dynamics; risk;

    Abstract : This thesis is the result of work within the research project "Probabilistic Models for Ship Safety in Rough Seas". One major danger in sea transportation is the shifting of cargo. The aim of the project has been to develop a methodology for assessing the risk of cargo shifting as well as performing some case studies. READ MORE
