Due to the collapse of corrugated bulkheads subject to accidental flooding which is thought to be a primary cause of bulk carrier losses International Maritime Organization(IMO), the International Association of Classification Societies(IACS) and the leading classification societies are taking a growing concern for the structural safety of corrugated bulkheads of bulk carriers. To prevent progressive collapse of corrugated bulkhead in flooded condition particularly of forward cargo ho1d they try to make rules which require reinforcement of corrugated bulkhead structure. However, we are still confronted with the urgent problem of more accurate and efficient ultimate strength assessment for corrugated bulkheads. This paper develops a special purpose nonlinear FE program for analyzing progressive collapse behavior of corrugated bulkheads subject to lateral pressure loads. As verification examples, the program is applied to collapse strength analysis of steel corrugated bulkhead test model.

It is very important to protect life, property at sea from any fire. Recommendation on improved fire test procedures for surface flammability of bulkhead, ceiling and deck finish materials specifies a procedure for measuring fire characterizing their flammability and thus their suitability for use in marine construction. In this paper, we investigated the positive expected by fire test procedures for flammability of bulkhead, ceiling and deck finish materials. Also, unusual materials were analyzed. Finally, we suggest methods to solve several problems related to unusual materials.

Internal detonation of a warhead inside a compartment of naval vessel can result in serious blast damages including plastic deformation and rupture of the structural members especially bulkhead due to the huge explosive impact pressure, fragments and high temperature flame. To secure watertight integrity and to prevent the domino-type flooding of neighbouring compartments caused by the rupture of bulkheads, it is necessary to develop the structural design technology of Blast Hardened Bulkheads(BHB) which can resist the blast impact pressure of threatening weapons to increase the survivability of naval vessels. This study dealt with the simplified structural response analysis of BHB under impact pressure of confined explosion and aimed to develop the efficient and rational design method of BHB and joint structures which can be applied at initial design stage. The present 1st report dealt with the phenomena of explosive detonation surveying the preceding experimental/theoretical research and the characteristics of time history of blast pressure including the peak value and duration time were examined. And to predict the large plastic deformation behaviors of BHB by the huge blast pressure reasonably, the plastic hinge method including the membrane effects was formulated. It was applied to the simplified structural design equations. The following report will deal with the application and adjustment process of the structural scantling equations to the actual BHB design and verification of validity of them.

This paper presents the results of full-scale structural measurements of 4,800 unit pure car carriers "HYUNDAI NO.103" and "HYUNDAI NO.105" on one voyage respectively for each ship, especially in order to investigate the local strength of partial bulkhead above free-board deck. With the measured data, the short-term frequency analyses have been performed. The results show that the wave-induced stresses follow, on the whole, well the Rayleigh distribution. In addition, it has been found from the measured data that transverse local stresses at bulkhead section have a very close relation with the acceleration in athwartship direction. Finally, the long-term analysis has been attempted by using the following two statistical distributions mainly in order to estimate the maximum stress amplitude at the corners of partial bulkhead. 1) Exponential distribution of cycles of stress amplitude 2) Double exponential distribution of extreme values of stress amplitude for each short-term analysis The results of these two cases show a good agreement with each other. For example, the estimated maximum stress amplitude for 10 years at port-side corner of Fr. 132 partial bulkhead is $2125kg/cm^2$ for the first case and $2170kg/cm^2$ for the second case just based on the measured data.

Dual pulse rocket motor is a solid motor with two grains separated by a bulkhead and rupture disc. The elasto-plastic explicit dynamic analysis for the rupture disc was conducted by finite element method. The effect of the slit geometry of a rupture disc was parametrically analyzed in terms of rupture time and shape. The results can be used to control the rupture pressure by changing the slit geometry of rupture disc.

본 논문은 사하중 절감이 중요한 장지간 교량에 있어서 유리한 구조를 가지는 강바닥판의 성능 강화를 위한 수치해석 연구를 실시하였다. 이미 국내외에서는 다수의 강바닥판을 이용한 교량의 시공 사례가 많으며, 앞으로도 시공 또는 계획될 해상 장지간 교량에서도 강바닥판 교량의 사례가 많을 것으로 판단된다. 강바닥판 교량은 공기를 단축할 수 있으며, 들보의 높이가 작아서 날씬한 형상으로 할 수 있기 때문에 미관을 향상 시킬 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 가설 공사비를 절감시킬 수 있는 등 많은 장점을 갖고 있다. 하지만 강바닥판은 이상과 같이 장점을 갖는 구조이지만 비교적 얇은 강판을 복잡한 형상으로 용접하여 조립함에 용접 결함, 잔류응력, 면내 및 면외 변형의 발생 등의 문제점이 지적되고 있다. 따라서 외국에서는 강바닥판의 피로 손상에 대한 실험 및 연구로 많은 자료를 확보하고 있으며, 국내에서도 국내 현실에 맞는 강바닥판의 피로거동 및 피로강도 향상방안에 관한 연구가 더욱더 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 국내교량에 적용되고 있는 구조상세 및 구조해석을 실시하여 강바닥판의 피로거동과 응력 특성을 파악하고, 피로강도를 향상하는 방법으로 Bulkhead Plate와 수직리브 형상 및 부착에 따른 거동을 분석하고, 최적상세를 도출하여 강바닥판의 적극적인 활용화에 그 목적이 있다.

For a Product Oil Carrier, longitudinal bulkhead as well as transverse one is corrugated shape in general and intersection part of bulkheads is utilized for a pipe trunk. Since lower and upper stools are to be connected with all of longitudinal and transverse bulkheads, they have a uniform height respectively. The purpose of this study is the development of design system for the minimization of total weight of longitudinal and transverse bulkheads at the initial design stage. In this study, the beam element models for longitudinal and transverse corrugated bulkheads are established and they are applied to the structural analysis. For the practical design, the selection and the position of an additional pipe trunk are considered in this study. In addition the required minimum distance between the bracket installed along the web of corrugation at lower stool and the diaphragm is taken into consideration during optimization process. Evolution strategy(ES) is adopted as an optimization technique.

A bulkhead-type pulse separation device has been developed for the multi-pulse rocket motor. The design parameters of the pulse separation device were the shape of the rupture disc slit, welding conditions, and the implementation of the seal disc. The pneumatic tests of the fabricated pulse separation devices showed that the rupture pressure increased as the quantity of the rupture disc slit and welding strength increased and the seal disc was implemented.
