Simplified Approach for Assessing the Explosive Residual Strength of Ship Hulls

Authors

Abstract

To evaluate the residual strength of the ship after explosion, the Explosion Smith Method (ESM) is proposed. The innovation of the ESM lies in two aspects: firstly, based on the Baker shock wave and quasi-static pressure model, Jones critical velocity model, propose a method for assessing the range of explosion damage of cabin and validated through referenced experiments. Secondly, proposes the strain-stress relationship of the deformation element. To verify the feasibility of the ESM and study the influence of TNT location and mass,16 simulations and EMS calculations were conducted. The results showed that the residual strength is most impacted when the TNT in top deck. For side cabin, the explosion products discharged and impact reduced. The trend of the ESM and simulation were consistent, but the result of ESM was more severe. The reason that strain-stress relationship of the deformation element more stringent, resulting in the ESM smaller than the simulation. However, as the TNT increases the error decreases. In the future, more research can be conducted on the deformed structures to enhance the accuracy of the ESM.
