Content: Currently, a large number of large container ships are built to cope with the increasing demand for ship born transportation of goods from especially Asia to Europe and USA. The increasing size of the vessels requires a careful structural analysis taking due account of the wave-induced loads. A major point of concern today is the importance of wave-induced hull-girder vibrations both in the form of steady-state vibrations in relative low sea states (called springing) and transient vibrations in severe sea states (named whipping). These phenomena are currently not included in the standard rules from the ship classification societies. The present project is concern only with whipping. Based on accurate theoretical investigations for a wedge entering a calm water surface, a formulation of the whipping vertical bending moment has been suggested. This formulation takes into account the hull girder flexibility, the stochastic properties of the waves and the relative submergence of the section of the ship responsible for the slamming impact leading to a transient whipping vibration. However, the formulation is based on a number of simplified assumptions and also contains the unknown average length of the section subjected to a slamming impact. Hence, experimental validation is required before such theory can be applied in actual design studies. Experimental data is available trough the SeaSence project, where an onboard measuring system both gives information of the wa...
