Abstract

Ship shock tests have been conducted for shock qualification of hull integrity and proper operation systems and subsystems. The ship shock trial identifies design and construction and it also validates shock hardening criteria. The main problem is that ship shock trials are costly. Numerical modeling and simulation, using FEM, may provide information to look into the details of fluid model, dynamic characteristics of ship hull and its internal component. The ship shock modeling and simulation has been performed and the predicted results were compared with ship shock test data made into sea trials. The preliminary studies of shock analysis approach are presented and the important parameters are discussed. The course of pressure changes in the shock wave and the acceleration of the ship hull during an underwater explosion in a fixed point, coating elements with chosen junction forces (example), designation of degrees of freedom of rectangular plate, simplified diagram of interactions in the process of detention in the hull of a ship, analysis of the acceleration of the Newmark method, calculations based on central difference method, schematic anchor launch, layout of the apparatus and the conditions for an explosion, the course of the accelerations recorded in the ship's hull, The course of simulation of the acceleration are presented in the paper.
