Extreme Values of Surface Effect Ship (SES) Responses in a Seaway. Part I. Estimation of Extreme Values for SES Design Consideration,

Abstract

This report discusses the principle and procedure for predicting extreme values of SES responses in a seaway in an attempt to provide useful information necessary for the design. The probability function suitable for prediction is discussed in detail. Also, a discussion is given of structural reliability analysis in which the first passage failure probability is evaluated from the information on extreme values. (Author)
