Plates and curved plates are essential components in ship construction. In the design stage, the methods used to evaluate the ultimate strength required to confirm the structural safety of plates include prediction through analytical methods, finite-element analysis (FEA), and empirical formulas. However, with nonlinear buckling, the results of the empirical formula and the FEA differ for small flank angles (1~9). As a result, the prediction of the nonlinear ultimate strength of flank angle (1~9) plates still requires significant computation time and cost. To compensate for this, this study performed an ultimate strength prediction method utilizing a deep neural network together with the 4050 curved plate analysis. In addition, this paper presents the analysis results of the nonlinear finite-element method and the geometric shape and ratio of curved plates as training data. Based on the results of this study, designers can more efficiently design appropriate curved plate members by considering the ultimate strength.
