Abstract
The importance of calculating shear stress distribution for different ship types could be demonstrated by calculating the equivalent stresses at certain locations over the ship section. For certain types of ships such as container ships and bulk carriers, the shear stress could reach high values at certain sections along the ship length and also at certain locations over the ship depth.
