OPTIMIZATION OF DAMAGE STABILITY CHARACTERISTICS IN RO-RO PASSENGER SHIP DESIGN

Öz

A procedure for optimization of Ro-Ro passenger ship damage stability characteristic has been developed based on probabilistic damage stability analysis and particle swarm algorithm. The main aim of the present study is to investigate the effectiveness of subdivison in Ro-Ro passenger ship design in the view of risk assessment to improve safety standards. The optimum arrangement is compared with initial structure and alternatives. The results and insights of present work are given in depth in the final part of the study
