Improvement of ship stability and safety in damaged condition through operational measures: Challenges and opportunities
hods: experiments, numerical simulations, and simplified analytical methods. All methods can be applied from the local element level to the level of small-scale ship substructures. Experimental results are used as a reference against which the two other methods must be verified. If experiments are impracticable and costly, such as on global structure level, the use of numerical and simplified methods should be considered.
