Abstract
A descriptive account of the application of modern computer methods to the structural analysis of entire super-tankers. The computerized approach is explained and compared to classical methods. A survey is given of the technical problems associated with such an analysis. These include the size relationships of computer facilities, programs and structural models; the size and organization of the group necessary to accomplish such tasks; estimate of costs; estimates of computer time and total project times expected.
A significance statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
A contribution statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
Method details are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Findings are not separately available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Limitations are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Application details are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
