Research on shafting alignment considering ship hull deformations

TL;DR: Based on the calculation fundamentals of ship hull deformation, a new method of shafting alignment considering ship hull deformations is proposed in this article, where ship loadings, wave loads and environment temperature differences in some extreme conditions, as well as elastic constraints, are simulated and applied to the finite element model of 76,000 DWT product oil tanker.

Shaft alignment using strain gages: case studies

TL;DR: In this paper, measurement and modeling programs were undertaken to assess the installed shaft alignment condition on marine vessels, including the CCGS Earl Grey and the HMCS Huron, where catastrophic damages had previously occurred to shaftline components, which were suspected to be a result of shaft mis-alignment.

Analysis of measurement methods and influence of propulsion plant working parameters on ship shafting alignment

TL;DR: In this article, a new original method of direct measurement of the bearing reactions on the foundation pads is presented, and possible application of the method was analyzed by means of computations and experimental investigations carried out on a 2000 TEU containership at quay and during sea trials.
