  • A critical look at SOLAS CH II-1 with respect to Floodable Length of compartments in RoPax ships
    Journal of Marine Science and Technology, 2013
    Co-Authors: Romanas Puisa, Dracos Vassalos, Nikolaos Tsakalakis, Cantekin Tuzcu
    Abstract:

    The paper presents findings of a research project (RP625) funded by the UK Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) with the purpose to provide evidence of equivalence, or lack thereof, between previous and currently in force legislative instruments governing damage stability of RoPax ships, with special focus on inboard spaces with low degree of subdivision, referred as long lower holds (LLH). The outcome of this research brings more clarity and reassurance to the industry and administrations when addressing the specific safety implications of new designs with such large un-subdivided spaces, specifically indicating that the present SOLAS 2009 regulations are able to adequately cater for ship design equipped with LLH.

  • an improved method for Floodable Length calculation
    International shipbuilding progress, 2000
    Co-Authors: A R Kar
    Abstract:

    The well-known and widely used method of Floodable Length Calculation proposed by Dipl. Ing. F. Shirokauer is undoubtedly easy to comprehend and suitable for manual calculation. But the method is often found to be tedious for manual calculation owing to the involvement of assumption and 'trial & error' approach and not very simple to write Computer Programs. The method proposed in this paper is a direct analytical method not having requirement for any assumption and/or trial and error' for determination of the desired parameters, hence found to be more efficient, accurate and very simple for computer programming.
