Load and Global Response of Ships

ISBN: 9780080439532 出版年：2001 页码：351 Jensen, J J Elsevier Science_RM

This book provides an introductory overview to naval architecture statistics and strength of materials. Each subject is treated in detail, starting from the first principle. The aim is to derive and present the necessary theoretical framework for predicting the extreme loads and corresponding hull girder stresses that a ship may be subjected to during its service lifetime. Although some account is given to reliability analysis, the present treatment has to be supplemented with methods for detailed stress evaluation and for structural strength assessment before a complete structural reliability analysis can be carried out.
