Abstract
This paper presents the results of an experimental investigation to determine the torsional ultimate strength of a ship-type hull girder with a large deck opening. Two models with the same dimensions and scantlings were designed to reflect the possible modes of failure under pure torque. A comparison between nonlinear finite element calculations and the experimental results for the two models is presented. The effect of different assumptions and of the variation of different parameters is studied.
