Description

Stability of a capsized ship depends not only on the location of its center of a gravity and hull form, but also on the subdivision and the weight of flooded water. In the present paper, to clarify the stability characteristics of a flooded and capsized ship, the authors developed a computer program to calculate the restoring force. The program is validated using the results of experiment done with the model of barge. A full scale experiment of a capsized yacht is carried out to observe its restoration process to upright condition and the speed of flooding. On the basis of the experimental results, some calculations of the stability quality of the capsized yacht are done by the computer program.
