Review of Available Methods for Application to Second Level Vulnerability Criteria

Contemporary Ideas on Ship Stability and Capsizing in Waves

Part of the book series: Fluid Mechanics and Its Applications ((FMIA,volume 97))

Abstract

The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has begun work on the development of next generation intact stability criteria. These criteria are likely to consist of several levels: from simple to complex. The first levels are expected to contain vulnerability criteria and are generally intended to identify if a vessel is vulnerable to a particular mode of stability failure. These vulnerability criteria may consist of relatively simple formulations, which are expected to be quite conservative to compensate for their simplicity. This paper reviews methods which may be applicable to the second level of vulnerability assessment, when simple but physics-based approaches are used to assess the modes of stability failure, including pure-loss of stability, parametric roll, surf-riding, and dead-ship condition.
