This paper reports a study on the uncertainties in assessing loading conditions of handy size bulk carriers. Loading conditions and the corresponding hull girder still-water loads are important for the safety of bulk carriers. Unfortunately, statistical studies on this topic remain very few, partly because of the difficulty in fully...

This paper describes the large-scale testing and the finite element simulations of the collapse of a steel-composite joint, both bolted and bonded. The joined structures are typical ones of shipbuilding and namely of naval ships. Composite superstructures, beside a valuable weight reduction, may improve the signature features of the ship by...

One of the key issues concerning the use of composite materials in the construction of steel ships, or vice versa, the use of steel in the construction of composite ships, is related to the ways of joining composite parts to the adjacent steel structure. Carbon-steel joints are of increasing interest for the maritime industry, but knowledge is...
