... Abstract Green water is a rare and complex wave impact event that can affect the safety of the ship and those aboard. During the design process, the risks that these events pose have to be mitigated, preferably by minimizing the probability of a high impact pressure. As green water events...

... of largest extremes per sample. Due to data availability, a direct application-example for the illustration of the merits of this novel approach is the determination of the most-probable maximum of experimental green water related extreme loads. Using the proposed approach, the statistical attributes...

... Abstract Under rough sea conditions, the green water on the ship deck may induce great impact loads on the hull structure, which will cause serious structure damage and pose a threat to the safe ship navigation. Therefore, the study of green water and the impact load is particularly important...

... Abstract A modified dam-break solution is proposed to predict green water profiles on the deck of an FPSO through calibration against model test results. The dedicated modifications to the original dam-break solution of Ritter (1892) include: the adoption of the measured speed of waterfront...

... Abstract This paper investigates the ability of physical and numerical models to simulate green water impact loads on a circular cylinder located on top of a fixed box. A focused wave group was used to overtop the box and generate the green water event, which resembled a plunging wave with air...

... Abstract The amount of green water and the associated loads that an ocean-going vessel may encounter during its service life are important aspects to consider in the vessel’s design and classification. As green water is typically a highly non-linear phenomenon, commonly the maritime industry...

... and FSOs) on the Norwegian Continental Shelf. Reported incidents are summarised with a focus on the period 2000 to 2019. The incidents include cracks, dents, corrosion, turret incidents, green water, position keeping systems, stability and ballasting, collisions and incidents related to the offloading...

... wave breaking impact on a vertical wall is simulated and the results compared to experimental measurements, with trapped air compression effects. Finally, the method is applied on a breakwater green water loading calculation of an Ultra Large Container Ship in an extreme focused wave impact based...

... 22 02 2010 Green water effect is a highly nonlinear free surface problem. It can cause severe damage on floating marine structures. Therefore, it is of great importance to be able to predict the green water occurrence on the freely-moving floating marine structures and the associated...

... 09 01 2009 Most floating vessels experience some sea states, not necessarily extreme storms, which cause large volumes of green water to flow across the deck. Due to the location of safety critical equipment on the deck of FPSOs, the determination of the likely occurrences...
