説明

Brittle fractures of the hull structure cause serious structural damage, with the potential for both fatalities and environmental damage, once they happen. In recognition of this, ships are designed and constructed so as to ensure that brittle crack initiation does not occur. Further, if by chance a brittle crack is initiated, it is essential that a back-up brittle crack arresting function has been included in the ship's construction in order to ensure structural reliability and hull integrity. However, recent studies and large-scale crack arrest test results have suggested that the present requirements for brittle crack arrest may not he effective for the extremely thick steel plates which have recently begun to be used in the construction of large container ships (Yamaguchi, et al., 2006). In order to address these concerns, comprehensive research has been carried out on brittle crack arrestability from a number of different perspectives, including the use of both numerous large-scale crack arrest tests and numerical calculations. The introduction of brittle crack arrest concept in addition to brittle crack initiation control makes it possible to achieve "double integrity" by preventing both brittle crack initiation and propagation. This research was conducted by the Brittle Crack Arrest Design Committee of the Nippon Kaiji Kyokai (ClassNK) and the results have been summarized and incorporated in the ClassNK "Guidelines on Brittle Crack Arrest Design" (Nippon Kaiji Kyokai, 2009).
