선박의 구조설계단계에서 최종붕괴강도를 설계기준으로 삼는 경우는 거의 없으나 최근에 각국 선급에서 최종붕괴강도를 의무적인 설계기준으로 삼기 위해 자체적인 해석법과 설계식을 제시 하고 규정화하는 작업을 진행시키고 있다. [12, 17, 31, 32]. 1994년 ISSC [1]에서도 토론된바와 같이 특히 새로운 구조방식을 가진 선박의 합리적인 구조설계를 위하여는 해상플렛폼의 구조설 계시와 마찬가지로 삼아야 할 것이다. 본고에서는 선각거더의 최종붕괴강도에 대한 해석법과 간이계산식에 관한 연구동향을 문헌조사를 통하여 분석하였다. 그 결과 순수굽힘모멘트가 작용 하는 문제의 경우 최종붕괴강도 해석법은 어느정도 확립되었다고 판단되지만 최종붕괴강도의 간이계산식은 아직도 정도 등의 면에서 개선의 여지가 남아 있다고 생각된다. 앞으로 순수 굽 힘모멘트뿐만아니라 조합하중을 받는 경우와 피로균열을 비롯한 초기구조손상을 가진 노후화된 선박에 대한 최종붕괴강도를 보다 정밀하게 해석하기 위한 해석법의 개발과 간이계산식의 도 출이 필요하다고 사료된다. 또한, 충돌, 좌초, 폭발 등에 기인된 선각거더의 붕괴강도 평가를 위한 해석법의 개발도 앞으로 남은 과제중의 하나이다.

Ship structure is composed of the welded mixture members which are plate and stiffeners. Ship structure is also influenced by variable loadings such as wave and inertia load. There have been several fatigue damage problems on the connection between longitudinal and transverse web due to wide usage of high tensile steel and adoption of wide web space to improve shipbuilding productivity. It is impossible to estimate the fatigue lives for all connection details through refined fatigue analysis. It is necessary to use the simplified approach for the fatigue life estimation of the connection details. PLUS analysis, which is suggested by the classification society, is one of the simplified approaches and is widely adopted to get fatigue lives for the connection details along whole cargo hold area. However, ship building yards still have difficulties to get fatigue lives due to large amount of calculation and time even if this approach reduce the time and amount of calculation. This paper treats the computing system developed to reduce efforts of estimating the fatigue lives. The influence factors of mean shear stress and local dynamic pressure are easily calculated and fatigue lives for all hot spots can be estimated automatically by the developed computing system. It is possible to reduce computing time and efforts to get the fatigue lives for the connection details between longitudinals and transverse webs along the ship. This system was applied to get fatigue lives on the connection details of a VLCC and verified the availability.

From the viewpoint of linear fracture mechanics, the crack propagation behavior of two different structures having the same K-a relationship could be considered identical. In this study the stress distribution in an infinitely wide cracked plate with the same K-a relationship as in a real structure is defined as the equivalent stress distribution. Fatigue life of a real structural element can be predicted by applying the equivalent stress distribution to a simple structural element, and performing a fatigue crack propagation analysis. The K-a relationship for a structural member can be estimated by a finite element method or a simplified prediction method. The validity to obtain effective crack driving stresses by using the equivalent stress-distribution is examined.
