Abstract

It is essential for realising risk-based design or performance-based criteria to establish theoretical modelling of extreme behaviours of an intact ship in waves up to capsizing. For this purpose, this paper summarises latest progresses in the researches conducted by the authors at Osaka University for improving theoretical modelling of intact stability in waves. Firstly, the methodology for calculating capsizing probability in beam wind and waves with piece-wise linear assumption is examined. Here a new formula covering both capsizing towards windward and leeward directions is provided. Secondly, for calculating restoring moment in longitudinal waves with sufficient accuracy, a hydrodynamic prediction method with wave-making and lifting components taken into account is proposed, and is reasonably well compared with captive model tests of a post Panamax container ship in head and following waves. This can be used in place of the Froude-Krylov prediction or captive tests for assessing the danger of parametric rolling for a practical purpose.Thirdly, for more efficiently identifying dangerous conditions in following and quartering waves, a numerical method for determining a heteroclinic bifurcation is proposed with its successful example to applied to surf riding thresholds with nonlinear factors taken into account.
