“…It has been shown that the insertion of longitudinal reinforcements contributes to the structural integrity of a frame-based hull, reducing the von Mises stress in all experimental load regimes. Recently, Eliav and Helfman [46] used finite element analysis to examine the feasibility and weight benefit of trireme construction with laced planks instead of mortise and tenons. A 36.9 m long Olympia trireme was used as a reference, as shown in Figure 17.…”

“…Maximum compression stress determined in the keel showed that the laced design holds a reserve factor of 2.7, which is higher than the EN 1995-1-1:2004 Eurocode 5 requirement of 2.3 for the permanent load and of 1.8 for the short-term load [47].

Numerical reconstruction is the process of modeling, analyzing, and evaluating the performance of structures or a sequence of events using the finite element method and other numerical engineering methods. Although numerical analysis is used extensively in contemporary engineering problems, it can be equally useful in the study of ancient structures and events of the past. The materials and design of structures are different, e.g., when comparing a modern containership with an old galleon, but the main problem to be solved is essentially the same—will the ship sail efficiently and safely for many years? This paper aims to provide an overview of recent achievements in numerical reconstruction in maritime archaeology. Since it is clearly an interdisciplinary activity, research is often carried out within a specific project by project team members or interested groups of researchers. While the paper aims to provide a comprehensive overview of such efforts, special attention is paid to activities related to the AdriaS (Archaeology of Adriatic Shipbuilding and Seafaring) and NEREAS (Numerical Reconstruction in the Archaeology of Seafaring) projects supported by the Croatian Science Foundation, to which the authors actively contribute.
