[Abstract] Some recent accident reports involving large vessels in mooring operations or breaking away from their moorings conclude that brakes of mooring winches do not render before line parts. As the potential loss of ...
A New Understanding and Modelling of TSP and BP Indices Compared to Safety IMO Ship Requirements
(MDPI, 2021)
[Abstract] Due to the lack of information about the concept of Tons of Steering Pull (TSP) of many escort tugs, and the lack of research works relating the TSP demanded by a tethered vessel with respect to the TSP provided ...

(MDPI, 2021)
[Abstract] The present paper shows an original study of more than 163 ship accidents in Spain showing which of the usually employed variables are related to each type of vessel accident due to the lack of information in ...
Proposal of Optimal Operation in Ship Rolling Motion Considering Sea State Conditions
(MDPI, 2022)
[Abstract] Most of the research on ship rolling motion concerns a specific type of ship, such as containerships, or analyzes sailing during certain wave characteristics, rather than the full spectrum of waves that can be ...
