Popis: | Shipping of water on deck represents a danger both for moored (as FPSO) and for advancing ships. When a compact mass of water ('green water') is shipped onto the deck, the fluid moves with high speed, being able to damage superstructures and equipments and to be a risk for human lives. Also, the shipped water can significantly alter the dynamics of smaller vessels. Such events make the green water loads an important parameter to take into account even at design stage and call for predictive tools. However, knowledge about the physics involved is still limited and motivates increasing research effort. |
