An Integrated Evaluation of Navigational Safety for Navel Vessels

함정의 작전중 항해 안전성에 관한 종합 평가

The seakeeping performance can be defined as the ability of a ship to go to sea, and successfully and safely execute its missions even in adverse environmental conditions. From the viewpoint of safe operation, it is primarily important to estimate the seakeeping performance of a ship in a seaway. A method of evaluating navigational safety is presented by means of the integrated seakeeping performance index(ISPI) by measuring only vertical acceleration. Judgement of dangerousness is carried out for two types of naval vessels in applying the involuntary speed losses. The used models for computer simulation are Lpp 175m light aircraft carrier and Lpp 93m frigate. In developing the practical evaluation system of navigational safety, it is expected to be useful to solve the difficulties in measuring factors by sensors. The results are also useful for developing the optimum type of naval vessels by applying at the initial design phase.
