Abstract

The ship capsizing problem is one of the major challenges in naval architecture. The criterion of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) regarding capsize stability is still not including dynamic loads. Existing mathematical models of ships taking into account all degrees of freedom as well as fluid–structure–interaction can hardly be used for stability analysis with common methods from nonlinear dynamics theory due to their complexity. For the development of new better suited models a test environment has been created. A first prototype for an experimental capsize analysis is presented in this paper.
