  2. 1. Ship Behaviour and Ship Bridge Allision Analysis

    Author : Axel Hörteborn; SSPA Sweden AB; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ship domain; ship simulations; AIS data; failure statistics; risk modelling;

    Abstract : The demand for maritime transport has increased with the growing demand for worldwide trade. This has led to a major increase in maritime traffic and ship sizes over the last decades, which raises the probability of accidents. READ MORE

  4. 2. 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. Human Centred Design for Maritime Safety: A User Perspective on the Benefits and Success Factors of User Participation in the Design of Ships and Ship Systems

    Author : Nicole Almeida Costa; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; domain knowledge; co-design; design decisions; participatory design; maritime safety.; sociotechnical systems; integration; participatory ergonomics; user centred design;

    Abstract : For over six decades, Human Centred Design (HCD) has been considered a desired design approach for the implementation of Human Factors/Ergonomics (HF/E) knowledge and methods for understanding the needs of the end-users. Although other comparable frameworks exist, they can be seen as subcategories or as tools for HCD, as HCD is considered by some as an overarching approach. READ MORE

  6. 4. Fully Nonlinear Unsteady Three-Dimensional Boundary Element Method for Force Predictions on a Restrained Hull in Waves

    Author : Martin Kjellberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; time-dependent; BEM; nested domain; fully nonlinear; free-surface;

    Abstract : There is a need from both academia and industry for more accurate and efficient methods for predicting the behavior of ships in a seaway. A large variety of methods with varying level of sophistication and accuracy already exists today. READ MORE

  7. 5. On the Launching of Evaluation Capsules From a Ship in Beam Seas. Numerical and Experimental Investigations of Ship Motions, Wave Climate and Capsule Dynamics

    Author : Philip Ekman; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The process of evacuating a passenger ship in a seaway can be difficult and providedangerous situations for the passengers. The ship motions and the wave climate in thevicinity of the ship are factors that influence the launching process. READ MORE
