Damage stability of small vessel

Диссертация. - Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, 2006. 203 p.The survivability of a vessel is related to intact and damage stability requirements. However, intact ship survivability has received more attention than damage ship survivability. This study seeks to emphasise in damage stability for the reason, the safety of passenger vessels has always been the prime concern of regulatory bodies. There are various ways of assessing the damage stability such as deterministic, probabilistic and real time simulation approaches. The purpose of this study is to further develop a ship stability program using MATLAB based on real time simulation of the dynamic behaviour of the damaged vessel in wave conditions.ContentsIntroduction
