Intact Ship Stability - The Way Ahead
No full textThis paper, prepared as an introduction to the Session on Stability Standards: the Way Ahead, contains some notes and considerations of the author following the discussion of the item Revision of the Intact Stability Code at the recent meetings of the International Maritime Organization Subcommittee on Stability and Load Lines and Fishing Vessels Stability held in London in July 2002 and in September 2003. The origins of present Intact Stability Criteria are clarified and innovative recent experimental results are introduced to explain the unsatisfactory status of these criteria. The paper presents a plan of new Stability Criteria and discusses the foreseeable difficulties connected to their development also in the light of the analysis of previous attempts
The Rules Making Process and the Effect of Regional Differences on Maritime Transportation Safety
Full text linkIn this paper the maritime safety and the protection of marine environment are discussed from a general point of view with particular reference to the effect of ship typology and of the regional differences. Some contradictions and existing gaps are discussed with reference to explanations on hystorical basis. Foreseeable developments are presented with reference to examples of particular interest
Lo studio dei moti nave mediante simulazione nel dominio del tempo
No full textIn questo lavoro vengono presi in considerazione i problemi connessi con la meccanica dei moti nave in relazione alla simu-lazione nel dominio del tempo. A tal fine, a partire da una descri-zione dei moti di ampiezza qualunque in termini di angoli di Eulero, viene ottenuto un sistema di equazioni differenziali coerente e completo per la risoluzione numerica con i metodi di integrazione al passo
