Study on stability of a purseiner, which is based in Lampulo, has never been carried out till now. The objective of the research is to analized quality of stability of a purseiner which is based in Lampulo Fishing Port based on its real load distributions. Stability analysis was carried out on some load distributions variations, such as: 1) Condition 1; departure (100% fuel-0% load) ; 2) Con-dition 2, 3 and 4; arrival from fishing ground (fuel remain 20%, 25%, 20% and load of fish 100%, 70%, 50% ) and 3) Condition 5; arrival from fishing ground (55% fuel-100% load). Krylov method combines with trapezoidal approximation was used for analyzing. The results show that in all load conditions, this purseseiner show a good stability with the highest GZ maximum value in condition 4 (GZ max 0.63 m) and the lowest is in conditon 5 (GZ mas 0.52). Comparing to the IMO reco-mendation on stability, all load variations above are comply with the recomendations.
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.
