Part 1 : On Shipping Water onto Deck of the Ship in Oblique Regular Waves

Hiromitsu Kitagawa, Akira Kakugawa

Abstract

Model experiments were carried out on an ore and two container carriers in head and oblique regular waves. Relative water elevation around the bow and shipping water passing through the forecastle deck end were measured to analyze the behaviour of the shipping water on deck. Criterion for deck wetness was also examined by the O. S. M. calculations and the model experiments. Severity index to shipping water onto deck of the ship was proposed.
