This book contains a selection of research papers presented at the
11th and 12th International Ship Stability Workshops (Wageningen,
2010 and Washington DC, 2011) and the 11th International Conference
on Stability of Ships and Ocean Vehicles (Athens, 2012). The book
is directed toward the ship stability community and presents
innovative ideas concerning the understanding of the physical
nature of stability failures and methodologies for assessing ship
stability. Particular interest of the readership is expected in
relation with appearance of new and unconventional types of ships;
assessment of stability of these ships cannot rely on the existing
experience and has to be based on the first principles. As the
complexity of the physical processes responsible for stability
failure have increasingly made time-domain numerical simulation the
main tool for stability assessment, particular emphasis is made on
the development an application of such tools. The included papers
have been selected by the editorial committee and have gone through
an additional review process, with at least two reviewers allocated
for each. Many of the papers have been significantly updated or
expanded from their original version, in order to best reflect the
state of knowledge concerning stability at the time of the book's
publication. The book consist of four parts: Mathematical Model of
Ship Motions in Waves, Dynamics of Large Motions, Experimental
Research and Requirements, Regulations and Operations.
