Description
Widely publicised disasters serve as a reminder to the maritime profession of the eminent need for enhancing safety cost-effectively and
as a strong indicator of the existing gaps in the stability safety of ships and ocean vehicles. The problem of ship stability is so
complex that practically meaningful solutions are feasible only through close international collaboration and concerted efforts by the
maritime community, deriving from sound scientific approaches. Responding to this and building on an established track record of co-operative
research between UK and Japan, a Collaborative Research Project (CRP) was launched in 1995.
This volume includes selected material
from the first four workshops: 1st in University of Strathclyde, July 1995 organized by Professor Vassalos; 2nd in Osaka Japan, Osaka
University, November 1996 organized by Professor Masami Hamamoto; 3rd in Crete Greece, Ship Design Laboratory of the National Technical
University of Athens (NTUA-SDL), October 1997 organized by Professor Apostolos Papanikolaou; and 4th in Newfoundland Canada, Institute
for Marine Dynamics, September 1998 organized by David Molyneux. It contains 46 papers that represent all currently available expertise
on ship stability, spanning 17 countries from around the world. The framework adopted for grouping the papers aims to cover broad areas
of ship stability in a way that it provides a template for future volumes.
