The design of ships or any other floating systems intended to operate on or close to the surface of the sea is controlled to a large extent by what is usually referred to as seakeeping, or, in more common terminology, safety at sea. This is a primary consideration and criteria, which has to be fully met. Safety of a ship naturally includes the crew, cargo and the hull itself. Seakeeping is, indeed, a generalized term and reflects the ship's capability to survive all hazards at sea such as collision, grounding, fire, as well as heavy-weather effects related to the environment in general and waves in particular. The two most likely types of failure under these conditions are due to structural causes and capsizing resulting from insufficient stability under severe weather conditions. Such criteria as economical navigation of the ship as related to speed-keeping abilities, fuel consumption, avoidance of damage to ship components and cargo, and comfort to crew or passengers, or both, are key items. The operational limits of electronic equipment, mechanical components and weapon systems on board warships are other aspects of sea keeping. In this work it is highlighted that seakeeping is a generalized term that includes a wide variety of subjects such as ship motions (amplitudes, accelerations, phases), deck wetness, slamming, steering in waves, added resistance, hydrodynamic loadings (pressures, forces, moments) and transient loads. Since the ship environmental operability or its sea keeping characteristics are closely linked to the severity of the sea, the description of the seaway is usually considered as an integral part of sea keeping. It is taken into consideration that the severity of the sea cannot be considered in absolute terms, since for each floating system, be it a ship, a platform or a buoy, the intensity of the sea state can only be determined in terms of the system's responses. Hence, different thresholds apply to different problems, and sea state 4 may be just as severe for a small patrol craft as sea state 8 may be for a larger containership. Hence, the characteristics and frequency of occurrence of waves in specific sea zones are required if a possible reduction in the system environmental operability is expected. It is demonstrated that most texts or papers, which deal with the overall question of sea keeping, devote some attention to the basic phenomena, that is, the seaway and the motions of the ship or other floating platforms as a result of the excitation imposed by the seaway. Ship motions, as such, do not always constitute the criteria for sea keeping, and much more often other responses directly related to the magnitude and phasing of the motions or the resulting velocities and accelerations constitute the prime cause for exhibiting good or bad sea keeping qualities. Such responses could be a function of the motion only, as in the case of added resistance or hydrodynamic pressures, or they could be a function of motion and other design parameters, such as freeboard in the case of deck wetness or the longitudinal weight distribution in the case of vertical bending moments. In this work, latest methods of modeling and computation for body-wave interactions described and compared with data observed for container carrier. The foregoing calculation routine Судноводіння | Shipping & Navigation ISSN 2306-5761 | 2618-0073 30-2020 Національний університет «Одеська морська академія» 79 is fairly well accepted today among naval architects specializing in the sea keeping aspects of the ship design process. Differences between the results obtained by various techniques as presented by the available computer programs are insignificant. However, since the regular-wave results are of little or no value except as input for the more realistic long- and short-term response predictions in a real seaway environment, it is important to determine which wave data information and what statistical extrapolation techniques are used to obtain the latter. The format used to describe the seaway in most ship response calculations is the wave spectrum. However, since measured spectrum for a specific sea zone or route are very rarely available, it is often necessary to use spectrum measured in one location for predictions in another location. In such a case, while the basic spectruml shape and scatter remain unchanged, the percentage of wave height distribution would vary to represent realistic conditions for the sea area in question. Such data usually are based on observations, and assuming the sample is large enough the distribution of expected wave heights should be quite reliable. An alternative approach often used in ship design is to utilize one of several theoretical spectruml formulations [2, 3, 4] such as the Pierson-Moskowitz one-parameter spectrum, the ISSC spectrum, the JONSWAP spectrum, and other. In each of these cases, some input parameters are required usually in the form of wave height, period, peak frequency, fetch, etc. The reliability of the wave data depends in these cases both on the quality of the input parameter and the adequacy of the theoretical formulation.

Larnbung timbul dipertimbangkan sebagai elemen yang penting dalam keselarnatan kapal. Sehingga untuk menjaga kelayakan laut, kapal harus merniliki beberapa daya apung cadangan, seperti volume diatas luasan garis air dan dibawah geladak kedap air. BKI sebagai badan klasifikasi nasional merniliki peranan penting dalarn penentuan larnbung timbul melalui kegiatan survai dan sertifikasi lambung timbul kapal. Studi awal mengenai lambung timbul dan koreksi tinggi haluan dilal<ukan terhadap kapal register BKI untuk wilayah perairan Indonesia melalui pengujian model kapal tipe barang yang selanjutnya dijadikan acuan dalarn perhitungan garis muat kapal. Perhitungan larnbung timbul dan koreksi tinggi haluan dilakukan berdasarkan analisis probabilitas kebasahan geladak pada posisi belakang, tengah dan haluan. Hasil analisis respon kapal akibat gelombang (RAO) menunjukkan bahwa pada arah gelombang dari depan dominan terjadi pada gerakan anggukan dan arah gelombang dari samping dominan terjadi pada gerakan putar. Untuk analisis probabilitas kebasahan geladak perubahan sudut hadap kapal terhadap gelombang berpengaruh signifikan terhadap terjadinya kebasahan geladak. Pada kondisi head seas kebasahan geladak i terjadi pada posisi stem tetapi masih memenuhi kriteria seakeeping. Untuk arah beam sea tidak terjadi kebasahan geladak pada semua titik deck wetness. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa margin keselamatan berdasar probabilitas kebasahan geladak masih cukup tinggi.

In this paper, the influence of the second-order slowly varying loads on the estimation of deck wetness is studied. A series of experiments related to classic cylindrical and new sandglass-type Floating Production, Storage, and Offloading Unit (FPSO) models are conducted. Due to the distinctive configuration design, the sand glass type FPSO model exhibits more excellent deck wetness performance than the cylindrical one in irregular waves. Based on wave potential theory, the first-order wave loads and the full quadratic transfer functions of second-order slowly varying loads are obtained by the frequency-domain numerical boundary element method. On this basis, the traditional spectral analysis only accounting for the first-order wave loads and time-domain numerical simulation considering both the first-order wave loads and nonlinear second-order slowly varying wave loads are employed to predict the numbers of occurrence of deck wetness per hour of the two floating models, respectively. By comparing the results of the two methods with experimental data, the shortcomings of traditional method based on linear response theory emerge and it is of great significance to consider the second-order slowly drift motion response in the analysis of deck wetness of the new sandglass-type FPSO.

This article describes the evaluation of the wave profile of submarine at surface condition and deck flooding which occurred by the wave making pattern at the bow. Movement of ships and submarines on the free surface of calm water creates the surface wave. Because of the difference in the bow shape and freeboard height, the wave making system in ships and submarines is different. Rounded or elliptical bow shape of submarines generates a high bow wave which causes deck and bow wetness. This is because of the fact that in submarines, this situation arises a small freeboard. In submarines, Deck wetness (because of deck flooding) is a very important subject that has some remarkable consequences, such as increase in resistance and added weigh. The focus of this article is on the added frictional resistance in the deck wetness condition. The bow wave profile, deck wetness and added resistance are studied in several Froude numbers by computational fluid dynamics method. This analysis is performed for a bare hull model at two different drafts by Flow Vision (V.2.3) software based on computational fluid dynamics method and solving the Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations.

AbstractThis paper presents operability guidelines for seafarers on a product tanker which navigates in the Adriatic Sea during heavy weather. Tanker route starts from the Otranto strait in the south to the island Krk in the north of Adriatic Sea. Heavy weather is caused by south wind called jugo (blowing from E-SE to SS-E, sirocco family). Operability guidelines are given based on an operability criteria platform for presenting ship seakeeping characteristics. Operability criteria considered in this paper are propeller emergence, deck wetness and bow acceleration of a product tanker. Limiting values of mentioned criteria determine sustainable speed. Heavy weather is described by extreme sea state of 7.5 m wave height. Wave spectrum used in this paper is Tabain spectrum which is developed specifically for Adriatic Sea. Seafarer's approach of decisions making in extreme weather is also shown and servers as a guideline for further research of the authors.
