Abstract:

Effects of rocket launch on a naval ship structures located near a rocket gun are studied. Using a finite element thermal analysis, the temperatures along the thickness are determined and then applied to the structure to investigate the thermal stresses distribution. Stresses caused by time/space dependent pressure loads are investigated as well, using transient structural analysis.

More about this publication?

The Journal of Ship Research is a quarterly publication providing highly technical papers on applied research in hydrodynamics, propulsion, ship motions, structures, and vibrations. While the Journal requires that papers present the results of research that advances ship and ocean science and engineering, most contributions bear directly on other disciplines, such as civil and mechanical engineering, applied mathematics, and numerical analysis. High quality papers are contributed from the U.S., Canada and overseas, with representation from established authorities as well as new researchers.
