Statistical Description of Wave Induced Vibratory Stresses in Ships.

Abstract

This report contains general, theoretical considerations of two peak response spectra with particular attention to wave induced bending and springing stresses in ships. Relationships between periods, RMS values and spectral width are discussed. Different representations of the resulting extreme value under stationary conditions are considered. An approach to the long term description and prediction of extreme stresses has been developed, and has in part been compared with alternative methods. Empirical data related to the theoretical deductions have been attached in an appendix. (Author)
