Risk-Based Ship Design

In this chapter, three applications of risk-based approaches to ship design are elaborated, namely the development and design of a lightweight composite sandwich superstructure of a RoPax vessel, the risk-based optimisation of cargo block of an AFRAMAX tanker for enhanced capacity and reduced environmental impact and the development and design of a fast displacement RoPax vessel of enhanced survivability and performance.
