Longitudinal hull girder vibration has not been occurred severely since 1960's. However, recent low speed diesel driven ships equipped with overcritical shafting system, can be excited heavily in longitudinal direction by shaft axial farce coupled with torsional vibration. In this study the characteristics of longitudinal hull girder vibration of a 73,000 deadweight bulk carrier were investigated through onboard measurement, exciter test, and 3-D FEM analysis. Results showed that the longitudinal hullgirder vibration may occur in the ship which is not set up the barred speed range in engine operation. Moreover, this vibration occurs. only during the low speed voyage in harbour depending upon the ship loading condition.

The structural response of naval surface ships subjected to underwater shock loadings is a very important problem in viewpoint ship survivability. In practice, among others the case of noncontact underwater explosions is the only one shock loading considered in designing naval surface ships to resist underwater explosions. In orator to efficiently design naval surface ships and their equipment to resist such shock loadings it seems necessary to prepare theoretical analysis tools and/or empirical design criteria which can predict the three dimensional transmission of shock waves. This paper describes a simplified method to analyse shock responses for ship hull girder, which uses a loading function to approximate the shock loadings on ship structures due to noncontact underwater explosions. A couple of examples to apply this method are provided.

One and three dimensional whipping response analyses of a naval surface combatant subjected to an underwater explosion bubble pulse were carried out to compare the efficiency and accuracy according to the modeling methods. In 1-D analysis, program UNDEXWHIP developed by KIMM was used, which is based on the thin-walled Timoshenko's beam theory and on the modal analysis method using wetted vibratory modes of the hull girder. In 3-D analysis, three finite element models were suggested using LS-DYNA/USA code, such as 3-D beam model considering geometric shape of wetted side shell, coarse and fine 3-D F.E. models. Through the comparison of results from the 1-D and 3-D analyses, it could be confirmed that 1-D analysis result is in good agreement with 3-D analysis ones, and that fine 3-D F.E. model, shock analysis one, is also used both in the shock response and whipping response analyses for the analyst effort and time savings.

This study presents reliability assessment of merchant ships with focus on hull girder ultimate limit state, taking into account the time-dependent effects of corrosion, fatigue cracking and local denting. Some considerations for establishing a reliability-based repair and maintenance scheme are also made so as to keep a ship's hull girder strength reliability at an acceptable level even later in life.

Fatigue damage analysis of ships includes parameters considering operational factors. Due to these operational variables, there is a difference between the fatigue damage estimated during the design stage and the actual accumulated fatigue damage. Likewise, there are various loading conditions for the real container ships, but at design stage the fatigue damage is calculated by applying the representative loading conditions. Moreover, although the difference in fatigue damages is expected when the actual and design loading conditions are applied, there are few studies on the contributions of the fatigue damage based on the loading conditions of container ships. In this paper, fatigue contributions were investigated from various cargo weight distributions. The hull girder loads calculated through seakeeping analysis and fatigue damages obtained by performing spectral fatigue analysis were identified under new loading conditions. As a result, it was found that the variation of cargo weight distribution in the container ship brought about changes in the hull girder loads and fatigue damage by affecting the hull girder stress.

This paper resents a prediction method of natural frequencies of coupled horizontal and torsional vibration of hull girder based on design sensitivity analysis in case of the changes of system parameters. The sensitivity analysis is formulated applying the direct differentiation method and transfer matrix method. In the analysis, warping, shear deformation due to torsion and the continuity condition at the connected part of open and closed hull section are considered. Using the presented method. The affection for natural frequencies by the change of system parameters, especially cargo and added mass and their centers, is numerically investigated for a real large container carrier.

This paper is concerned with a practical guide for the ultimate longitudinal strength assessments of ships' hull structure. Rigorous non-linear structural analysis for three tanker models has been carried out to examine the ultimate strength behavior. Formula of estimating the ultimate longitudinal strength has been proposed which is modified with the results of non-linear finite element analysis of hull girders. Computational reliability and accuracy of the large-scale non-linear finite element analysis and the proposed simplified formula are verified through comparing their results with that of 1/3 scale frigate model test and DNVs program. Additionally, the ultimate longitudinal strength for ten tanker models is compared with those by the method specified in the 2nd Draft of common structural rule for tankers, which is being developed by IACS.

The early damage detection of large structures is very important to prevent the disaster due to its global failure. In this paper, a crack detection method of the beam-analogy structure based on the wavelet transformation of mode shape is presented. The method can effectively detect the singularity of mode shape caused to the inconsistency of bending moment and shear force at the damaged part using the discrete wavelet of mode shape and its inverse transforms of detail components. To investigate the validity and the applicability of the presented damage detection method, numerical simulation and experiment are carried out for the idealized beam and the real ship structures.

In the combat environments at the sea, the naval ships should have enough structural integrity to perform the task under the enemy's attack and possible damages. Although the naval ships can be damaged from the enemy's attack, those damages should be minimized and the naval ships must maintain their combat capabilities continuously after recoveries from the damages. Therefore, it is ve교 important for modem naval ships, especially combat naval ships, to ensure the survivability. This paper reviewed the developing procedure for the technique of the naval ships structures and described method, especially box girder system considering survivability. The efficiency of box girder is examined by numerical simulation, and it is found that the establishment of box girder is a good design method to improve the survivability.
