Abstract

A number of ship safety problems involve flow computations. Most of them do not require involved CFD calculations, but can be solved by relatively simple means which, nonetheless, are not state of the art. The problems discussed here are, in order of increasing sophistication: cross-flooding of damaged compartments; evacuation of persons on board a ship; sinking of a damaged ship in still water; accelerations and loads on free-fall lifeboats and damaged ship survival time in a seaway.
