et al.

Abstract: General cargo ships are the most numerous in the merchant fleet. In these vessels, the stowage and securing of non-standardized cargo must be designed prior to being shipped. Furthermore, during sea navigation, the shipmaster must be confident that the secured cargo is safe in any weather conditions. One of the goals of the present research is to provide helpful guides to ship operators about the optimal navigational parameters. Despite different criteria being followed by the shipping industry to calculate th… Show more

“…Other dangers associated with this problem are water washing over the deck, which is especially dangerous for small fishing vessels with low weather decks [3], or cargo shifting on merchant ships, which can result in loss of stability and, finally, capsizing. Furthermore, excessive rolling can cause cargo lashings to give way, resulting in cargo damage and, in some cases, structural damage to the ship [12]. Therefore, in spite of not being studied as much as other phenomena such as parametric resonance, synchronous rolling is a typical experience for almost all sailors.…”

“…In practical operational procedures, cargo securing is often executed based on the crew's own experiences, lacking clear corresponding securing standard verification requirements. This results in inefficient securing practices, leading to occurrences of either excessive or insufficient restraints [3,4]. With the development of maritime transportation, the demand for enhanced safety in cargo securing methods has become increasingly urgent, prompting scholarly focus on the safety assessment of securing cargo on ship decks.…”
