An approach to the corrosion analysis of bulk carrier hull structure
Journal Title: Scientific Journal of Polish Naval Academy - Year 2015, Vol 202, Issue 3
Abstract
Numerous bulk carrier hull structural damage analyses are based on the study of fatigue of materials and corrosion processes. Different theoretical and empirical models have been developed to describe the time-dependent characterization of corrosion of ship structures. In accordance with the existing rules of Maritime Classification Societies, the whole ship hull structure of each of the 12 almost 25-year-old bulk carriers considered in this paper, is divided into 11 structural areas. Motivated by Preliminary Risk Assessment, and using the data on the estimated amounts of the steel removed over these structural components during the whole exploitation period, here we estimate and compare the qualitative and quantitative risk levels related to the corrosion wastage over all bulk carriers’ structural areas.
