TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a review of the recent advances in the assessment of loads for ships and offshore structures with the aim to draw the overall technological landscape available for further understanding, validation and implementation by the academic and industrial communities.

TL;DR: In this paper, a consistent structural analysis procedure to estimate the global and local load effects considering symmetric and anti-symmetric hydroelastic vibrations in high waves is proposed.

TL;DR: The effectiveness of the CFD-FEA coupling method for predicting global and local hydroelastic response of a ship which couples CFD and FEA is confirmed and the method is applied to a realistic large container ship structure in severe waves.

TL;DR: In this article, the post-ultimate strength behavior of a ship's hull girder in waves is investigated, where the hull deformation grows until unloading starts at the collapsed section, and several parametric dependencies of the extent of the collapse behavior are discussed.

TL;DR: In this article, a total simulation system combing load calculation and structural collapse analysis is applied to simulate progressive collapse behaviour of a single-hull Kamsarmax type bulk carrier.
