Analytical solutions for large scale seaborne constructions & vessels
”Bullshit in = Bullshit out”
Computer added analysis and calculations are a nice and fine addition. Most important are the boundary conditions: bullshit in is bullshit out. And even so important is the “short check”. The calculation by hand, by pocket calculator, by head, on the back of the cigar box. Does the outcome make sense?
Vessel sailing in the air?
Sailing vessel in the fog?
Salvaging a vessel from the bottom?
The visible boundaries don’t tell you enough, you need more info to know what is going on here.
Lifting a vessel with floating sheerleg to load it upon another vessel in dense fog.
