The set of the construction elements which are designed to divide the boat structure into compartments and enable the maintenance of the balance of the boat by keeping the water entering the hull in a certain region in case of any damage is called watertight bulkhead. The main factor taken into consideration while determining the number of watertight bulkheads and their structural strength properties is to protect the stability of the ship in case of filling with water after a collision and to ensure that the bulkhead has a resistance level that can endure this water pressure. In warships, these bulkheads can be used for other purposes and may be exposed to a number of military loads in addition to operational loads. This study examines the reinforced watertight double bulkhead structure designed to reduce the effects of blast caused by the explosion in the compartment after the weapon hit on warships and fragmentation effects only under blast loads.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
