“…Consequently, the A-index can provide a very conservative measure of survivability. Alternative s-factor formulations have been presented by Papanikolaou et al (2013) and Cichowicz et al (2016). Still the SOLAS formulae are widely used.…”

“…However, the available statistics are not very comprehensive since accidents are fortunately rare. Pioneering work on grounding damages was carried out in the GOALDS, Papanikolaou et al (2013), and EMSA III projects, EMSA (2015). Since the SOLAS framework and the underlying probabilities are well established, the present study is limited to collision damages.…”

A new approach for analysing the level of survivability for a passenger ship in the event of a collision damage is presented. Monte Carlo simulation is used for generating a large number of damage cases. The probability distributions for damage extent and location are based on the current SOLAS regulation. Each case is calculated with time-domain flooding simulation, assuming quasi-static motions and calm sea, thus enabling evaluation of the righting lever curve during the flooding process. The ship survivability is analysed based on requirements for a sufficient reserve stability. The proposed method is demonstrated with a large passenger ship design. Based on the detailed investigation of the results, the effects of various design changes are studied. Furthermore, the impact of waves on the flooding process is studied. The presented method for survivability assessment is robust and especially suitable for comparing design variations, or ships with similar main dimensions. ARTICLE HISTORY

“…Typically, the costs incurred by a grounding are associated with ship repairs and operational delays, which might include steelwork repairs, outfitting harbour fees and additional fuel consumption (Papanikolaou et al, 2013). Costs may be excessive when a grounding occurs on a reef; damages potentially including reef restoration, structural solutions to repair natural breakwaters for the protection of coastlines sensitive to erosion, and restoration of the structural integrity and topographical complexity of reefs (Young et al, 2012).…”

A Risk Assessment of Ships Groundings in Rivers: The Case of Parana River

A ship's grounding appears to be a significant threat to the safety of its crew, marine environment and the local ports economy. The risk of such incidents is higher in rivers since weather conditions can significantly alter the depths of channels from those shown on navigation charts. By means of a fuzzy analytic hierarchy process, a new methodology is proposed, capable of evaluating the hazards of a ship's grounding in a river. The proposed method contributes to safe navigation in rivers. Navigators are able to assess grounding risk in a river passage based on local information of past incidents. The proposed methodology is used to evaluate commercial risks from groundings in the Parana River. A case study was carried out using data from 118 cases, as provided by local agencies for the period 2008–2017.

“…", while other suggested that the new regulations were more demanding (e.g., in terms of GM requirements than the SOLAS90 + Stockholm Agreement) for large RoPax ships while being generally less stringent for small ferries [4]. The latter observation was later "extrapolated" to all passenger vessels and common understanding was that the formula underestimates actual safety levels of large cruise vessels (the HARDER [5], sample of ships included two RoPax ships and one cruise liner) while the safety performance of RoPax ships may be seriously overrated [6].…”

This paper presents a brief summary of the work carried out by SSRC and Brookes Bell Safety at Sea within the EC-funded project GOALDS on the development of a new formulation for assessing the survivability of damaged ships in waves. The proposed formula is meant to be an alternative or replacement to the s-factor in use within the current SOLAS regulations for probabilistic damage stability. The authors briefly discuss concerns related to the current survivability model and present the process of development that led to the re-engineered formulation.
