A review is provided focusing on the uncertainties in fatigue loads, damage and crack
growth to be incorporated in reliability assessments. The complex fatigue loads originating …

This paper presents a co-simulation method for numerical prediction of nonlinear
hydroelastic response of ship advancing in severe wave conditions. Two-way coupling of …

A numerical simulation method is presented by integrating Computational Fluid Dynamics
(CFD) and Finite Element Analysis (FEA) solvers to predict ship wave loads and slamming …

A fully nonlinear hydroelastic numerical method is proposed for the fluid–structure
interactions of elastic ships. The boundary value problem is solved by the three-dimensional …

In this paper, a fluid–structure interactions method which fully couples CFD and FEA solvers
in a two-way manner is used to estimate ship wave loads and hydroelastic responses. The …

When subjected to a slamming load, wave-piercing catamarans may be vulnerable to
damage and deck diving. Aluminum beams are one of the key components of catamaran …

This study presents a model based on Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural networks for
the reconstruction and prediction of global whipping responses using ship motion data. The …

This study deals with a benchmark test on the performance of seakeeping analysis codes,
which was carried out as part of the 2nd ITTC–ISSC joint workshop in 2014. Eleven institutes …

A ship in waves may experience a water impact event known as a slam. In this paper, slam-
induced bending of wave-piercing catamarans in head seas is predicted by way of fluid …

Conducting model experiments is an effective and reliable way in the investigation of ship
hydrodynamic and hydroelastic behaviors. A survey of model testing techniques for ship …
