Abstract

This paper presents a brief insight into the ASDEP course 'Collision and Grounding as Criteria in ship design'. However, in this paper the focus is placed on the collision aspect alone. The general aim is to raise the awareness of the methods and procedures to be used to assess the behaviour of ship structures subjected to a collision. After a short background chapter, the following chapter describes how to consider and simulate the internal mechanics of ship collisions. Furthermore, the dynamics involved in ship collisions are presented, and at last a coupled numerical approach to solve, both the internal mechanics and outer dynamics simultaneously. Each chapter is followed by discussing a short example.
