ABSTRACT This article presents practical methods to design an Anti-Roll tank (ART) for a ship and to predict the performance of the system ship + ART in a sea state. The methods presented are extensions of existing mathematical models. The prediction of the moment exerted by the tanks has been improved and new models for the lateral force have been derived. Instead of using only the roll angle, a combination of the roll angle and the local lateral acceleration is used as excitation of the motion of the tank. The main advantage of this combined parameter is that it accounts for the distance of the tank bottom to the roll axis and the effect of sway. Experimental and CFD methods have been reviewed and results are shown. Limits of the use of the U and FS-type of ART are separately discussed and quantified. The procedure is demonstrated by a design example.

ABSTRACT The quantification of the effect of ship design measures on its energy efficiency during real operation and using data-driven models is presented. Data collected from automated logging and meteorological service provider, received before and after the ship retrofit are utilized. Initially, a data preparation analysis is carried out and the input variables for the prediction of the main engine’s fuel oil consumption are selected. Afterwards, artificial neural networks (ANNs) design techniques are investigated utilizing modern machine learning methods. The generalization competence of a model is assessed based on its efficiency to cope with data that were not used in its training. Furthermore, the accuracy achieved by models incorporating different input parameters is examined. Then, the assessment of fuel consumption savings due to the design measures is performed using the ANN models which have been trained on separate data before and after the adoption of measures.

ABSTRACT Historical information is the key input for risk analysis with respect to developing the risk model as well as in the risk management process, i.e. identification of effective risk mitigating measures. Casualty databases are today still the primary source of this information on accidents and incidents. Accident investigation reports provide more detailed information on the accident scenario and facilitating improved risk analysis. Casualty information by IMO GISIS, IHS Markit and LMIU for the period 1990–2020 and containerships of more than 999 GT had been re-analyzed and information categorized for allowing statistical analysis of causes. A taxonomy had been developed for the consistent categorization of information and used to present accident causes in a more structured way. Appropriate statistics regarding the main causes for major types considering collision, contact, grounding, fire, explosion and failure of machinery equipment are presented in this paper. Historical trends and quantitative casualty characteristics are reported.

ABSTRACT This paper presents an experimental study of a passive version of the Water-jet vortex generator to reduce the drag force over a NACA 661-012 hydrofoil. The passive blowing used the overpressure zone at the leading edge of the hydrofoil’s lower surface as a source of water jets that create jets on the upper surface of the hydrofoil using the blowing tubes. The experimental tests were carried out in the towing tank in Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM) with a hydrofoil model with a 250-mm long chord at Reynolds numbers of (1.4 105 < Re < 2.8 105). It was found that the passive water-jet vortex-generator reduces the drag force with a slight lift decrease.

ABSTRACT This paper presents the results of the hydrodynamic optimization of a large yacht concept design that is meant to be used as a reference for future buildings. The optimization framework is used to improve the calm water resistance performance of a generic baseline design while satisfying a set of geometrical constraints. The shape of the hull is modified according to a geometrical interpolation approach where two shapes are combined to obtain a third design. The search towards the optimum is driven by a global convergence, multi-objective, genetic algorithm where the resistance of each candidate is evaluated by a Boundary Element Method. The final optimal design is then verified by means of a high-fidelity Reynolds Averaged Navier–Stokes technique, preliminary validated against available experimental data. The obtained results show the strong influence of the stern shape of the hull on the final resistance performance, highlighting the effects of the pressure recovery due to a so-called S-shape bottom. The bow shape is modified consistently to fulfil the geometric constraints and to further improve the resistance performance by inducing a positive interference effect on the generated wave pattern.

ABSTRACT While society benefits from Arctic shipping, it is necessary to recognize that ship operations in Arctic waters pose significant risks to people, the environment, and property. To support the management of those risks, this article presents a comprehensive approach addressing both short-term operational risks, as well as risks related to long-term extreme ice loads. For the management of short-term operational risks, an extended version of the Polar Operational Limit Assessment Risk Indexing System (POLARIS) considering the magnitude of the consequences of potential adverse events is proposed. For the management of risks related to long-term extreme ice loads, guidelines are provided for using existing analytical, numerical, and semi-empirical methods. In addition, to support the design of ice class ship structures, the article proposes a novel approach that can be used in the conceptual design phase for the determination of preliminary scantlings for primary hull structural members.

ABSTRACT A lower pitting severity produces a shallower corrosion pit shape on a corroded ballast tank. Pit distributions of corroded specimens have a probability model for the non-Gaussian surface. Therefore, the present work focuses on the numerical study of stress distribution within the corrosion pit area, while considering different corrosion pit geometries. Accordingly, 45 dog bone-shaped finite element models with a single corrosion pit are investigated. The geometrical parameters of the corrosion pit are analyzed with quantitative correlations at different sizes, shapes, and different levels of enlargement. Additionally, a corrosion pit alteration scenario is proposed, with a narrow deep, hemispherical, and final shallow wide form. Results show that the stress concentration factor remains relatively constant at the pit edge and increases toward the pit bottom. Furthermore, stress declines on the pit bottom and shallower corrosion pit form, which conforms to the polynomial trendline.

ABSTRACT This article presents an optimization-based approach for sizing and composition of an Arctic offshore drilling support fleet considering cost-efficiency. The approach studies the main types of duties related to Arctic offshore drillings: supply, towing, anchor handling, standby, oil spill response, firefighting, and ice management. The approach considers the combined effect of the expected costs of accidental events, the versatility of individual support vessels, and ice management. The approach applies an Artificial Bee Colony algorithm-based optimization procedure. As demonstrated through case studies, the approach may help to find a range of cost-efficient fleet compositions. Some of the obtained solutions are similar to corresponding real-life fleets, indicating that the approach works in principle. Sensitivity analyses indicate that the consideration of the expected costs from accidental events significantly impacts the obtained solution, and that investments to reduce these costs may improve the overall cost-efficiency of an Arctic offshore drilling support fleet.

ABSTRACT When dealing with maintenance in the ship's engine room, the space available around machinery and systems plays an important role. A proper clearance is usually indicated by the system supplier to perform maintenance operations. This space depends on the items dimensions, the kind of intervention and on the human operator, to avoid uncomfortable or dangerous positions. However sometimes the limited space in the engine rooms (as in warships, passenger ships, research vessels) implies critical issues in complying with such ideal clearances. This work aims to develop a tool to define a relation between the maintenance costs increase and the clearance reduction, regarding a single item and/or for the whole system. This tool improves the decision-making process during the design of engine room’s layout, enabling the comparison among different solutions in terms of operational costs. The approach relies on data-driven models and Bayesian inference. The predictive tool, inserted on the Systems Engineering methodology, has been tested on a real case.

ABSTRACT The paper deals with the analytical evaluation of the linearized exciting wave forces; hydrodynamic coefficients and wave drift forces acting on a free-floating vertical cylindrical body placed in front of a reflecting orthogonal vertical wall. Linear potential theory is assumed, and the associated diffraction and radiation problems are solved in the frequency domain. The hydrodynamic interactions among the body and the adjacent breakwater are taken into account by applying a theoretical model based on the method of images, considering the breakwater as a fully reflecting, bottom mounted and water surface piercing wall of infinite length. The theoretical approach is supplemented by a numerical model considering the orthogonal breakwater as a barrier of finite length. The results of both formulations are compared with the ones corresponding to an isolated cylindrical body demonstrating the amplified scattered and reflected waves at specific frequency ranges originating from the presence of the orthogonal breakwater.
