EXTERNAL LOAD AND HULL ULTIMATE BENDING MOMENT OF DAMAGED HULL

Based on theory of floodability, the paper applies Vlasov's calculation method to determine the floating parameters of damaged hull, discusses the buoyancy curve of damaged hull on wave, and calculates wave bending moment and wave shearing force. The asymmetrical beam bending theory is applied to set up damaged model. The paper also discusses the ultimate bending moment of damaged hull by integrating external loads with damaged points. Expected results of examples are obtained.
