Abstract
The aim of the present work is to investigate whether green water
on deck in severe sea states have a notable effect on the maximum
wave bending moments. The analysis is carried out for an S175
container ship for which results from model experiments are
available. The static water head and a momentum term, using an
effective relative motion calibrated with the model tests, model
the green water load. The resulting loads are of the same
magnitude as the slamming loads. The results show only a marginal
influence of the green water load on the maximum wave bending
moment, although the time signal may vary rather significantly.
The reason is mainly the greenwater load being out of phase with
the peak values of the bending moment.
