Integration of Elliptical Ship Domains and Velocity Obstacles for Ship Collision Candidate Detection

Probabilistic Method for Predicting Ship Collision Damage

Integration Alternatives for Ship Designers and Shipyards

The offshore oil industry in Norway has for decades required advanced special purpose equipment for its operations. Norwegian shipbuilders have supplied the offshore industry and specialized in producing customized and technologically advanced ships. Shipbuilding is a typical Engineer-to-Order (ETO) industry. While the ship concept and design continues to be developed in Norway, ship production...

Risk assessment of ship/platform collision

Although there have been few collisions between ships and offshore installations, the grave consequences of such a collision has provoked the study of the probability of collision worldwide. A theoretical study is undertaken on the assessment of risk of collision in this paper. The causes of collision and the models of evaluating the risk collision are reviewed, which are then followed by some ...

ANALYSIS OF Bow CRUSHING IN SHIP COLLISION

Collision of ships with oil tankers poses, next to grounding, one of the most serious environmental threats at sea. In many previous analyses of the collision problem, the bow of the impacting ship was considered rigid. The objective of the present research is to include the finite strength of the bow in the overall collision simulation. The emphasis will be placed on typical raked shapes becau...

Methods of Ship-bridge Collision Safety Evaluation

The paper presents methods and models used nowadays for risk assessment of ship-bridge collisions.
