The objects of this paper are to stimulated discussion of the criteria used for deciding the scantling of watertight bulkhead stiffener of steel fishing boats ranged of length of 20 meters to 80 meters and to suggest a method of calculation based on beam theory. Present knowledge is examined and it appears that failure of a bulkhead stiffener is comparatively rare. Regarding its structure bulkhead does not contribute on longitudinal strength of a ship. The strength of a bulkhead stiffener can be treated locally. Assuming bulkhead stiffeners are free ends and fixed ends theoretical required section modulus are calculated and compared with classification societies' rule. Welding effect of a bulkhead stiffener to bulkhead plate and a bracket to stiffener and deck plate are considered. On various conditions of joints are suggested.

The classification society rules [1], [2], [3], [4] on the thicknesses of the bulkhead platings are represented graphically. Fig. 1 shows that every rule value for the thickness of the ordinary watertight bulkhead plating is than theoretical value calculated by Timoshenko's formula (1) for ${\sigma}_y=35,000$ psi and ｋ=0.4998. When a flooding due to damage occurred, however, the stiffened edges would yield and clamped edges would change to plastic hinges. In such case, the maximum bending stress at the clamped edges are reduced considerably. The rule values, therefore, are supposed to be acceptable in spite of their insufficient scantlings compared with the values calculated by (2). In the ordinary watertight bulkhead platings A.B.S. Rules give the largest scantlings of all. Fig. 2 shows that A.B.S. Rules and K.R.-N.K. Rules give larger values than the calculated by (2) for deep tank bulkhead platings. But Lloyd Rules give the smaller thickness than equation (2). The special requirements for corrosion bulkhead platings are not studied here.

Corrugated bulkheads for a bulk carrier are divided into watertight bulkheads and deep tank bulkheads. Design of the watertight bulkheads is principally determined by the permissible limit of Classification and IACS requirements. But, the verification of strength through finite element analysis is indispensable for design of the deep tank bulkheads. A stage for stress evaluation of corrugated part is required for optimum structural design of the deep tank bulkheads. Since the finite element analysis for real model requires excessive amount of calculation time, in this study one corrugated structure is replaced with beam element and is idealized as 2 dimensional frame structure connected to upper and lower stool Minimum weight design of the deep tank bulkheads is performed through generalized sloped deflection method(GSDM) as direct calculation method. The purpose of this study is the development of design system for the minimization of steel weight of deep tank bulkheads as well as watertight bulkheads. Discrete variables are used as design variables for the practical design. Evolution strategies(ES) is used as an optimization technique.

As a second step of a thermal stress analysis in a watertight bulkhead plate during welding of a spool type penetration piece, is idealized as a thin circular disk with a clamped boundary. The exact solution for the transient temperature distribution and associated quasi-static thermal stresses which arise in a circular disk subjected to an instantaneous point source of heat acting in its interior has been obtained. And the solutions have been extended to the case of moving source of heat with the aid of the Duhamel's superposition integral and the results finally derived have been compared with the other results from the typical cases. The solutions can be applied to the problem such as a welding of a penetration piece on the watertight bulkhead and also applicable to the problems which occur in cutting or welding.

As a first step of a thermal stress analysis in a watertight bulkhead plate during welding of a spool type penetration piece, the bulkhead plate has been idealized as infinite plate with a circular hole. The exact solution for the transient temperature distribution and the associated quasi-static thermal stress which arise in a infinite plate subjected to an instantaneous point source of heat acting on the periphery of the circular hole. And the solutions have been extended to the case of a moving heat source with the aid of the Duhamel's superposition integral. The solutions can be applied to the problems such as a circular cutting or welding of a plate.

Design of the corrugated watertight bulkhead for a bulk carrier is principally determined by the permissible limit of Classification requirements. As the weight of upper and lower stool has considerable portion of the total weight of the transverse bulkhead, optimum design including the stool geometry and size will play an important role on economic shipbuilding. The purpose of this study is focused on the minimization of steel weight using the design variables, which are the shape and the size of the corrugation as well as the upper and lower stools. Discrete variables are used as design variables for the practical design. In this study, the evolution strategies (ES), which can highly improve the possibility of leaching the global minimum point, are selected as an optimization method. Usefulness of this study is verified by comparison with the proven type ship design. As objective function, total weight of the transverse bulkhead including the upper and lower stools is used.

Superyachts are passenger vessels whose hull exceeds 24m. They are a kind of luxurious leisure ships. Interior designers can contribute in the field of space design of superyachts. This study is intended to investigate the space elements and their organization of superyachts for putting the base of superyachts interior design. Especially it is focused on the interior space division by structural elements such as the watertight bulkheads and decks. In this study we analyze general arrangements, floor plans of decks, of 31 superyachts and extract space elements and their disposition in three dimension. On the basis of the space arrangement we classify the types of space organization of superyachts. And then we inquire the interior space division of superyachts, which is characterized by the structural elements of the ship. The watertight compartments made by the bulkheads and decks have a great effect on interior space design in super yachts. The results of this study are summed up as follows: At first, the small-size superyacht has 3 decks and the midium or large-size superyachts has 4decks. Secondly, depending on the number of decks the superyachts has several typical patterns of space organization. Thirdly, in general there are 5-6 watertight compartments on a deck depending on the superyachts scale. Finally, there are distinct separation between the passenger's movement and the crew's movement on the ship.

E/R bulkhead is watertight bulkhead between engine room and cargo hold. So, it must have sufficient strength about cargo load of aft hold. Especially, partial stringer deck between tank top and $2^{nd}$ deck of engine room must have sufficient strength because it has function of primary supporting member. Generally, cargo hold structure is verified through the direct calculation as finite element analysis of cargo hold, but engine room structure doesn't perform it. Therefore, we have performed finite element analysis of engine room stringer deck which considered cargo hold load. And then, it will be able to apply similar ship design.
