The Golden Ray left port appearing seaworthy, but a small error in the ship’s stability inputs meant the real margin of safety was far lower than anyone realized. This breaks down the ballast ...
Ship stability and flooding dynamics are critical areas in contemporary naval architecture and marine safety research. This field examines how vessels respond to damage and the subsequent ingress, ...
After a violent collision tore open its hull, this ship stayed afloat thanks to damage stability principles shaped by lessons from the Titanic. This video breaks down bulkheads, floodable length, and ...
