reater
3-2-10/3. Bulkhead plating t = sk \(qh) /254) + 2.5 mm but not < 6.5 mm or s/150 + 2.5 mm, whichever is greater.
Therefore deep tank rules govern for the collision (Fore Peak) bulkhead.
k = 1
For WT bulkheads, h is from the bottom of the plate to the bulkhead deck at center, c = 254 for collision bulkhead, 290 others
Deep Tank h = bottom of plate to a point 1.3m above the top of the tank (or 2/3 overflow ht). = 1.025

On CL Longitudinal bulkhead, typical web fr full height adds 111% to 11.8mm PL weight.
A horizontal mid-height stringer with mid-span vertical adds (77%+72%)/2 + average(63%,53%) = 132% i.e. no benefit.
Stringer scantlings are indicative only, giving approximate depth and cross-sectional area. 14PL webs would actually be
12mm PL with stiffeners adding about 20%. Vertical at Fr 40, 61, would actually be a swash bulkhead.

INTRODUCTION
In the development of the design of the Heavy Air Lift Seabasing Ship (HALSS)
trimaran, questions have arisen on the maneuvering characteristics that should be
expected of such a large and innovative hull configuration. In particular, ship steering at
a under rudder control, and slow speed maneuvering in harbor with only the side hull
propellers operating instead of bow thrusters, require an initial assessment to confirm that
se

HALSS Design Report Appendix C - Maneuvering Assessment
the rudders main dimensions and the side propeller thrust range would be sufficient to
ensure adequate maneuverability in all conditions.
The method by Zhang and Andrews [Ref. 1] of the University College London (UCL) is
used to estimate the maneuvering performance of the HALSS in this study. This paper
focuses primarily on high speed trimaran steady turning circles but the methodology used
is also suitable for predicting relatively low speed turning radii under the action of side
propellers. In brief, the method by Zhang and Andrews is a force and moment balance
that aims to estimate the value of the steady turn radius, given values for ship speed (not
the result of a resistance/thrust balance) and rudder angle (both quantities are considered
constant and uncoupled from the resulting turning characteristics). Multi-hull
ydrodynamic derivatives are computed assuming no interaction between main hull and
ssion series, those of the side
ulls are assumed equal to a very low aspect ratio lifting surface.
lthough turning circles do not provide a complete picture of a ship maneuvering
ults with current IMO and USCG
quirements for commercial ships is deemed sufficient for the purpose of qualifying this
aspect of the initial design. In this respect, please note that although the current IMO and
USCG requirements for commercial ships are based on the value of the tactical diameter

In order to achieve the above objectives, the following approach was adopted:
1. Zhang and Andrews's method was implemented in an Microsoft Excel
spreadsheet
2. The ensuing spreadsheet was verified and calibrated using the model test results
provided by UCL in [Ref. 1]
3. The method was further validated against the full scale sea trials data collected by
QuinetiQ on the trimaran RV TRITON [Ref. 2 and 3]
4. The method was finally applied to the HALSS design [Ref. 6 and 7] to determine
steady turn radii for the following configurations:
- Using rudders only
- Using side props only assuming one idling and the other pushing
- Using side props only assumi one reversing and the other pushing

IMPLEMENTATION
The paper by Zhang and Andrews [Ref. 1] provides most details about the numerical
method therein proposed. Nevertheless, some small variations and additional
assumptions were made in order to either bridge the occasional gap or in order to
facilitate the code implementation. These variations and assumptions were as follows:
1. The side hulls resistance differential is ignored. The reason for this assumption is
that individual resistance regression lines for the side hulls are not available for
the HALSS, RV TRITON or UCL model. This assumption is justified by the
conclusion in [Ref. 1] that the influence of this element on the overall turning
moment is negligible.
2. B-Series were used in order to estimate thrust coefficients for the side propellers.
This is probably a coarse assumption for all three vessels since the actual
propeller geometries are quite different from those of the Wageningen series. The
reason to adopt these coefficients is that they are well established, readily
available and would serve relatively well the purpose of an initial estimation of
the propulsion characteristics.
3. The thrust of a side propeller backing was estimated in two ways. As suggested
by Zhang and Andrews [Ref. 1], one way would be to assume it equal to the
propeller bollard pull. This can be estimated using the B-Series simply by setting
the speed of advance equal to zero. It is believed that this method might
underestimate the steady turn radius. For this reason it was not employed to
estimate the HALSS slow speed maneuvering but only to compare HEC results
with UCL data.
A second way is to consider the thrust of the backing propeller equal to
approximately 20% of the equivalent forward thrust for the same RPM and speed
conditions. This is in accordance to what is stated in [Ref. 3 for RV TRITON]
and most probably a more realistic assumption than the first one. Results for the
HALSS were calculated with this method.
Note that the four quadrants propeller characteristics of the B series could also be
used to estimate the propeller thrust in any speed-RPM combination, using Ct-
Beta characteristics. However, the Triton experience is deemed to be more
accurate than the analytical model of four quadrants propeller characteristics for
such an original ship configuration.
CALIBRATION
In addition to the very detailed description of their numerical method, Zhang and
Andrews also provide som tests that can be used to
calibrate the spreadsheet im ee Table 27).
In the following comparison, one needs to bear in mind that not all input parameters were
available for the UCL trimaran in Zhang and Andrews paper. In Appendix A, the values
of the input parameters that were directly available from the paper are highlighted in bold
blue characters. All other parameter values (normal blue characters) were either
estimated from other similar ships or deduced from other data available in the paper.

The same comparison presented above for the case of sole rudder operation, was also
carried out for two modes of differential side propulsion: with one propeller pushing and
one idling (case a) and with one propeller pushing and one reversing (case c). The

UCL (Table 28 and Table 29) in Figure 47 and Figure 48.
Again, the comparison is possible only for a few points because of lack of detailed input
data. Also, some discrepancies in the treatment of bollard pool are evident from Figure
48. In summary, although the comparison for the propulsion differential steering is
certainly encouraging, the scarcity of data makes this part of the calibration difficult to
rely on.

RESULTS
Steady turn radius estimates were run for the HALSS trimaran for the same operation
modes as the ones run for the UCL model:
- Rudder only
- No rudder, one propeller pushing and the other one idle
- No rudder, one propeller pushing and the other one reversing

Figure 50 also shows the current IMO/USCG requirement for merchant vessels. This
stipulates that the tactical diameter should be less then five times the vessel length. For

CONCLUSIONS
In terms of comparison to existing IMO criteria, the HALSS in her current configuration
displays satisfactory turning ability.
The above results show that for high speed turning, rudder control is always required
since side propulsion differential quickly becomes inadequate as the ship speed increases.
The reason for this is that the propeller thrust decreases as the speed of advance increases,
whilst the hydrodynamic resistance of the hulls to turning increases as the ship speed
increases. Since the power (RPM) of the side propellers is limited, the vessel will
quickly get to a point (ship speed) where the turning moment from the side propellers
will simply not be enough to turn the ship.
Unlike the differential thrust turning moment provided by the propellers, the rudders
turning moment increases with ship speed in the same way as the hydrodynamic
resistance of the hulls to turning (they are both functions of the ship speed squared). This
is what makes rudders such effective steering devices at higher speeds. In fact, according
to Zhang and Andrews methodology, the steady turn radius under rudder action only is
independent of the ships speed. This is also confirmed by the data in [Ref. 3].
101
HALSS Design Report Appendix C - Maneuvering Assessment
For low speed tur ery effective but
side propulsion would allow extremely tight turns. This is hardly surprising when the
side propellers are compared to standard bow thrusters, where side propellers typically
have larger diameters (thrust is a function of ropeller diameter to the power of four) and
delivered power than bow thrusters, as well as the possibility to be operated in opposition
(one propeller pushing and the other one reversing). Including the fact that the resistance
from the bow thrusters ducts cannot be reduced by operational means, while side
propellers can be made to idle in order not to produce extra resistance, makes this a
strong argument for avoiding bow thrusters in the design of the HALSS. One should
nevertheless remember that the crabbing capability provided by bow thrusters could be
difficult to match using rudders, side and center propellers only.
One final word is finally due in regard to the course keeping characteristics of the
HALSS. Using the hydrodynamic derivatives estimated by Zhang and Andrews method
(see Appendix B and C), one can estimate if the inequality:

Appendix D Longitudinal Strength Study
Longitudinal Strength Study
The Midship Section is taken at frame 45 with the following elements considered continuous and
effective:
The elements shown have a total weight of 37.099 t/m. Elements which are not continuous, such
as the inner skin, centerline bulkhead and accommodation deck forward of frame 45 and the
innerbottom girders (engine foundations) aft of frame 45.
The Seakeeping Analysis / Structural Loads Assessment gave a maximum anticipated Wave
Bending Moment of 870,000kN-M (page 38) in Sea State 7 head seas at 35 kts. This is only
about 1/3 of the ABS Rule Hogging Wave Moment of 356,275t-m or 3,490,000kN-M.
From the Intact Stability Summary, the Full Load departure condition was found to have a
maximum Stillwater Bending Moment (SWBM) of 695,014t-m(Hogging) at about frame 42.
To provide some margin, an allowable maximum of 750000t-m is desired.
Adding the Rule Hogging Wave Moment 356,275t-m requires SM = 44.648m3 for H-36 grade
steel. The Midship Section with Rule minimum bottom scantlings has approximate values of
SMB = 29.32m3 and SMT = 46.99m3, and the bottom shell plate is 19mm AH-32.
To achieve the required strength, all bottom shell plate (up to 3.8m ABL), and the CL bulkhead
below the Innerbottom, could be increased to 38mm plate with 300x38FB stiffeners, all grade H-
36 (bottom shell plate is DH-36, bilge EH-36, Lgl Bhd BH-36, stiffeners AH-36), throughout
.4L, and tapered beyond .4L. This is too big a contrast with the 12mm innerbottom plate, so
make it 30mm also, reducing the required plate thickness to 28 mm and giving the following
longitudinal strength results:

3.9 Shearing Strength
The thickness of the side shell is to be such that the nominal total shear stress fs is not greater than 1.122 / Q = 1.558 Frm 18.83
where fs = (Fsw + Fw) m/2t
s
I From intact stability study, maximum stillwater shear force Fsw = 8,280 tonnes
From Appendix S, first moment m = 292,068 m-cm2 Required Shell PL thickness t
s
= 1.60 cm
Inertia I = 730,695,452 m-cm3 Required Shear Modulus = 2 t
s
I / m= 8,006 cm2
Total shear force Fsw+Fw = 12,469 tonnes, giving fs = (Fsw + Fw) m / 2 t
s
I = 1.558 OK
7.3.2 In Port 3-2-1/7.3.2 SWBMh= 843,103 t-m In-Port max Shear = 11,397 tonnes
The allowable still water in-port stress is 1.34 tf/cm2 for bending and 1.025 tf/cm2 for shear.
For higher-strength steel, the allowable stress may be increased by a factor of 1/Q where Q is as defined in 3-2-1/5.5.

The revised scantlings give a weight increase of 6.318 t/m. Since the calculation omits the inner
skin and centerline longitudinal bulkheads forward of frame 45, only about 23mm PL bottom
structure would be required forward of frame 45, reducing the weight increase to about 3.77 t/m.
Similarly the engine foundation girders aft of frame 45 reduce the required bottom plate
thickness to 16mm (less than the original bottom shell plate thickness), a negligible weight
increase. The curves below indicate that the original scantlings would suffice fwd fr 72
(422,980H in MPFF Arrival Condition), so it appears that the total weight increase for
longitudinal strength will be approximately 2.5 t/m (average over frs 42-72) x 30 frames @ 3m =
225 t or about 0.6% of the 38,310 t lightship weight. Clearly it is critical to carry the engine
113
foundation girders forward of frame 45 to provide a good transition, in addition to providing
brackets to taper the inner skin bulkheads aft of frame 45.

The maximum shear force requires the side shell plating to be 16.5mm vs 16.0 provided, if all
longitudinal bulkheads are ineffective. In the area of maximum shear, the main engine
foundation girders and centerline longitudinal bulkheads provide additional shear area which
should be sufficient to achieve adequate shear strength with no increase in shell plate thickness.

1.1 COMMON PROCEDURES FOR SEAKEEPING IN THE SHIP DESIGN PROCESS.
(EXCERPT FROM NATOSTANAG4154 (EDITION 3)
SEAKEEPING CRITERIA FOR GENERAL APPLICATION
General limits are presented under which ships may operate with little or no degradation
due to ship motions. Referring to the discussion of degradation functions, the criteria listed in
this chapter are single limit values. If the particular motion does not exceed the limit that motion
either does not interfere with shipboard tasks or does not degrade task execution to an agreed
upon acceptable level. In addition, the limits for different motions are taken as independent. If
one limit is exceeded, the system is considered inoperable. Development and application of
degradation functions for various ship subsystems is discussed on the future of seakeeping in
ship design.
Beyond the limits for normal operation, ships are typically designed and built to national
standards for strength, stability and reserve buoyancy such that they are able to survive extreme
environmental conditions with minimal damage. In moderate seas, ships must have the mobility
to patrol and to transit to specific operating areas in order to accomplish specific missions. And,
ships must be able to be replenished while they are transiting to or operating on station.
The primary source for the limit values is a compilation by Lain, Daugard, Tomassoni
and Guilfoyle (1979), which is summarized in the more widely available Smith and Thomas
(1989). A typical organization of the limit values by subsystem and subsystem function was
130
presented by Comstock, Bales and Gentile (1982). In later work, some of the numbers presented
in these two sources have been refined. Thus the numbers presented below are taken from
several sources, which are listed as references.
PERSONNEL
Limits on personnel performance are set to account for crew safety and effectiveness.
For a long time, the limits have been specified in terms of roll, pitch, and vertical and lateral
accelerations. However, recent work was undertaken to improve personnel criteria, and has been
reported by Baitis, Applebee and McNamara (1984), Graham (1990) and Graham, Baitis and
Meyers (1992). So far, this work has yielded algorithms to calculate motion sickness incidence
(MSI) and motion induced interruptions (MII). These algorithms may be used with the modified
strip theory. Thus limits on MSI and MII are offered below as alternative criteria. The MSI limit
replaces that for vertical acceleration, which was derived as a single number independent of the
frequency of the motion. The MSI algorithm takes into account the human sensitivity to
different frequencies of motion, but does not take into account habituation. A value of 20 percent
of the crew in a four-hour exposure is chosen as reasonable. This is based on tests on subjects
with no prior exposure to the motion. A crew who has acclimated after a few days at sea would
experience lower levels of motion sickness.
The MII limit is based on tests and analysis of simple shipboard tasks where the human
subject was standing in various orientations to the axis of the ship or walking across the deck.
The number of MII per unit time is derived from a ratio of the acceleration parallel to the deck to
vertical acceleration normal to the deck. When this ratio reaches a certain level, the crew
member begins to tip or slip. This level may be characterized as either a tipping coefficient or a
friction coefficient. Different coefficient values may be associated with different tasks. Until
coefficients are determined for a variety of tasks, a reasonable default value is 0.25, which was
measured for lateral tipping of a person standing facing aft. MII are counted as a number of
times the coefficient is exceeded. With care, the limit may be applied to a variety of shipboard
tasks. The number of MII may be increased when the condition of the deck is poor and when
there are other environmental stressors such as wind, rain, snow and ice. The number of MII
may be decreased when the crew member takes corrective action, such as bending the knees or
changing the stance. Different values of MII which are associated with different levels of risk. A
value of 1 per minute is chosen because it represents a reasonable level of risk for many
shipboard tasks. The MII limit replaces those for roll, pitch and lateral acceleration. In any case,
the deck accelerations contain algebraic combinations of the three motions with heave and the
distance away from the center of motion. A relative wind limit is also listed for crew to support
aircraft operations on a flight deck. This is taken from the USS MIDWAY Motion Improvement
Program criteria reported by Pattison and Bushway (1991) for crew on a flight deck. If the
algorithms for MSI and MII are not available, then the roll, pitch and acceleration limits may be
used as alternates. The RMS values for these limits are also listed in Table below.

FUTURE SEAKEEPING CRITERIA
In introducing the future ship design process, Tibbits and Keane (1995) noted that rapidly
advancing computer technology is already making it possible to make more informed decisions
in the early stages of ship design. The payoff is that the early decisions can have a large
influence on the final design because 70 percent or more of the ultimate cost and performance of
a ship are "locked in" in the early stages of design.
Ships are expected to carry out a variety of missions in a range of weather conditions. On
the other hand, dwindling budgets mean fewer, smaller ships to accomplish the same missions.
Thus seakeeping will play an increasingly important role in the ship design process. With the
common procedures and supporting technology it is possible to do a fair comparison of the
seakeeping performance capabilities of different ship designs. However, a further examination
of seakeeping in the ship design process will show where enhancements can be made to
seakeeping technology in order to most cost effectively attain the specified seakeeping
performance. And a discussion of the future ship design process will provide a context for
balancing seakeeping performance with other design considerations.
1.2 ADVANCES IN SEAKEEPING EVALUATION METHODOLOGY
The beginnings of a new approach to seakeeping in the ship design process grew out of
discussions in the 37th meeting of NATO IEG/6 (now NG/6) Subgroup 5 on Seakeeping. The
new approach, shown in Figure B-1, acknowledges the importance of the man/machine
performance models, and the limiting ship motion design criteria for each of the models, as the
links between the ship motion and operability calculations.
132
133
SEAKEEPING IN THE SHIP DESIGN PROCESS
MAN-MACHINE SYSTEMPERFORMANCE MODELS/DESIGN CRITERIA.
Ship motion and wind limits, with various levels of accuracy, do exist for a number of
aircraft/ship combinations and for various weapons systems and support equipment. These are
referred to papers by Comstock and Keane (1980); Comstock, Bales and Gentile (1982); Lloyd
(1991); Pattison and Bushway (1991); and Smith and Thomas (1989).
For the operability calculations, the criteria are commonly applied as single values for
each motion parameter, independent of the other parameters. When the limit for one of the
motions is exceeded, that defines the limit of operability. Anything beyond that point is
considered as being totally inoperable. Anything below that point is treated as zero degradation
of the mission.
A significant improvement could be made in the operability calculation through incorporation
of the following:
a. Weighting of individual criteria. This involves determining the most critical motions for each
mission, and assigning weighting factors for each. For instance, MIIs or accelerations at a
critical location may be much more important than the roll or pitch.
b. Degrees of failure. If a criteria, for example roll = 6 was used, the ship which rolls 1 should
not be considered equal to the ship which rolls 5. The current approach to operability
assessment would consider the two ships equal since they both pass the 6 limit. Different
limit values for different degrees of operability would point up the differences between the
two ships.

c. Combining of individual criteria. For a mission where roll and pitch are important, for
example, a ship which only rolls 4 or which pitches 2 should not be considered equal to a
ship which rolls 4 while pitching 2. In another example, if the criteria for pitch and roll
were 1.5 and 5 respectively, the ship which pitches 1.6 and rolls 2 would be considered
inoperable while a ship which pitches 1.4 and rolls 4.9 would be considered operable and
thus the better ship. This conclusion may be flawed. Thus to improve the approach, it is
important to develop the limiting surfaces for combinations of criteria which are critical for
each mission.
d. The number of criteria exceeded. In some cases, different motions act independently to limit
the operation of different mission systems. In these cases the number of criteria exceeded
should be considered. For example, if both the dome emergence and flight deck MII criteria
limts are exceeded, this is worse than if only one of these criteria are exceeded.
But before the combinations can be addressed, more work needs to be done on individual
criteria.
Tipping and sliding limits, which depend in accelerations parallel and perpendicular to
the deck, need to be defined for deck equipment. To relate the two accelerations, Graham (1990)
introduced the general lateral force estimator which could be applied at any location aboard ship.
Recent sea trial experience suggests that the critical parameter for helicopter recovery is
vertical acceleration of the flight deck, though the landing systems engineer has to rely upon roll
and pitch readings from the ship's gyro. The true limiting parameters need to be identified for
other mission systems and subsystems as well. Limits need to be defined for launch and
recovery of boats, towed sensors, decoys, targets and minesweeping gear. Limits need to be
defined for ship towing operations.
Weakest may be the performance models and criteria for the human operator. The first
steps have been taken toward better definition of human performance. Initial models have been
developed for motion induced interruptions of shipboard tasks. These models are described by
Graham (1990) and Graham, Baitis and Meyers (1992). And the ABCD Working Group on
Human Performance at Sea (1995) reported on work being done to define the effects of ship
motion on cognitive performance, including decision making. Clearly, progress is being made
on the characterization of shipboard tasks by the human abilities required to accomplish them.
These range from the purely mechanical to the fine motor (psychomotor) to the visual to the
purely cognitive. Ship motion effects may be characterized and modeled by overlaying the
effects of motion sickness, habituation, motivation and fatigue on motion induced interruptions
of mechanical and fine motor abilities and the performance of cognitive tasks. Then
performance limits for each of the abilities may be reassembled to characterize the performance
of specific shipboard tasks; and to develop ship motion criteria for design evaluation.

3. TRIMARAN ANALYSIS PROCEDURE
3.1 General
The hull form and hydrostatic conditions have been developed with the program
FASTSHIP. The hydrodynamic analysis has been performed with the Wasim software. Wasim is
a hydrodynamic program for computing global responses and local loading on displacement
vessels moving at any forward speed. The simulations are carried out in the time domain, and
allows for results to be transformed to the frequency domain using Fourier transformations. The
WASIM code is developed and supported by Det Norske Veritas (DNV Software), and is based
on the SWAN (Ship Wave Analysis, Sclavounos, Nakos, et. al.) motions prediction code
developed at MIT.
The Wasim hydrodynamic software is capable of both linear and non-linear time domain
simulations. However, it has been assumed that the non-linear hydrostatic effects of the trimaran
hullform are negligible, and the motions analysis has been performed with a linear simulation.
This assumption is considered reasonable since the water plane area does not change
significantly for wave height variations around the static waterline.
The hull lines from the FASTSHIP program (see CCDOTT FY05 Task 6.1, Deliverable
#1 & 2 Technical report) are exported as an AutoCAD DXF File, which is then converted to the
required PLN format by Viking Systems proprietary software SAGA. The PLN File is then read
into the WASIM Manager where the user can use the built-in meshing techniques to produce an
MxN mesh of each hull part and the free surface to ensure that the mesh can be analyzed
properly in WASIM.
3.2 Load Development
The wave-induced loads have been developed to approximate the environmental conditions
associated with the standard Sea State definitions. The sea-states that are simulated in this
analysis are shown in Table 3.2.1

The sea state data is taken from References 7 and 8.
The irregular sea surface elevation used to approximate the sea states shown in the above
table are defined by a series of regular sine waves. A series of 200 regular cosine waves are
defined with SAGA through the used of a wave spectrum. The wave spectrum used for this
analysis is a Pierson-Moskowitz wave spectrum, which corresponds the wave energy density
present in the open ocean for fully developed seas.
The Pierson-Moskowitz wave spectrum is defined by the equation:

The input parameter for the Pierson-Moskowitz wave spectrum is the sustained wind

Pierson- Moskowitz sea spectrum are as shown in Table 3.2.1 and figure 3.2.1.

3.3 Analysis Methods
Wasim is a hydrodynamic program for computing global responses and local loading on
displacement vessels moving at any forward speed. The numerical simulations are carried out in
the time domain, and the time domain results may be transformed into the frequency domain
using Fourier transformations.
Time Domain Analysis
A time domain simulation has been carried out to evaluate the response of the vessel to a long
crested irregular sea state. A time domain simulation has been carried out over a ten (10) minute
period to evaluate the vessel response. The time domain analyses have been performed for Sea
States 4 through 7, and have been run for a 10-minute sample duration. A sample plot showing
137
the wave elevation, as well as the pitch and heave response for head seas in Sea State 7 are
shown in figures 3.3.1 and 3.3.2.
FIGURE 3.3.1 WAVE SURFACE ELEVATION FOR SEA STATE 7 10 MINUTE TIME DURATION
FIGURE 3.3.2 HEAVE AND PITCH DISPLACEMENT AT 35 KNOTS SEA STATE 7 HEAD SEA
The output responses from the time domain analysis have been processed by SAGA to
calculate the single amplitude root mean square (RMS) and significant response values for the
time signal.
The relative motion between the vessel and the free surface of the water has been recorded for
a series of locations along the length of the vessel. The time signal for the relative motion has
been processed with SAGA to record the number of occurrences of bottom slamming, wing deck
slamming, and propeller emergence. The time domain simulations have been used to evaluate
the performance this specific vessel against the acceptance criteria outlined in Section 2 of this
report. As such the slamming criteria is based on exceeding an allowed occurrence per hour
criteria and does not include a criteria for an actual slamming pressure.
3.4 Hydrodynamic Panel Models
The Wasim program solves the fully 3-dimensional radiation/diffraction hydrodynamic problem
by a Rankine panel method. For these methods panel models are required for both the vessel hull
and the free water surface.

4 Criteria
The displacements, velocities, accelerations and dynamic loads have been assessed for
this vessel against two specific sets of criteria. The mission statement calls for the ability to
transit safely at high speed and to conduct fixed wing aircraft operations while loitering on site.
The vessel has been analyzed against separate criteria specific to each mission. The criteria used
to evaluate the vessel motions are shown in the following sections.
4.1 Loitering Criteria
One of the primary functions of the vessel while loitering on site is to launch and retrieve
fixed wing aircraft. Therefore, the acceptance criteria for the vessel while loitering on site and
performing naval air operations are defined in the document NATO STANAG 4154, Common
Procedures for Seakeeping in the Ship Design Process (Edition 3, 1997), Reference 2 The limits
for conventional takeoff and landing (CTOL) of fixed wing aircraft from aircraft carriers are
listed in Table 4.1.1 as single amplitude RMS values of roll displacement, pitch displacement,
vertical and lateral displacement, vertical velocity, and relative wind.

4.1.1 Roll Criteria
The limit for roll displacement is dependent upon the roll period of the vessel. Longer roll
periods are more easily predicted and compensated for by the personnel operating on the flight
deck. Therefore, greater roll amplitude is allowed for roll periods exceeding 20 seconds. The roll
displacement criteria is shown in Figure 4.1.2
Figure 57: ROLL LIMITS FOR FIXED WING AIRCRAFT HANDLING (REFERENCE 2)
4.1.2 Pitch Criteria
The pitch displacement of the vessel is critical to limit the sink of aircraft off the bow during
launch as well as the stabilization limits of the optical landing system (OLS). The limit for pitch
142
displacement is also dependent on the pitch period of the vessel. Longer pitch periods are more
easily predicted and compensated for when launching aircraft. Therefore, greater pitch amplitude
is allowed for pitch periods exceeding 10 seconds. The pitch displacement criteria is shown in
Figure 4.1.3.
Figure 58: PITCH LIMITS FOR FIXED WING AIRCRAFT OPERATIONS (REFERENCE 2)
4.1.3 Vertical Displacement Criteria
In conjunction with the pitch angle criteria also specifies a limit on the maximum vertical
displacement of the aft end of the flight deck. The vertical displacement criteria of 0.8 m is
intended to avoid ramp strikes during aircraft recovery operations. This criteria is also
implemented in this analysis.
4.1.4 Lateral Displacement Criteria
The lateral displacement criteria of 2.3 m at the aft end of the flight deck is intended to prevent
off center or out of alignment landings on the flight deck.
4.1.5 Vertical Velocity Criteria
The limit on vertical velocity at the touchdown point on the flight deck is intended to minimize
the impact loads on the landing gear of the aircraft at touchdown.
.
4.1.6 Relative Wind Speed Envelope
While carrying out aircraft operations, the vessel is intended to operated within a very narrow
relative wind envelope. The C-130 aircraft will require a minimum wind speed over deck of 35
knots in order to land or take off, while the function of the crewmembers and personnel working
on the flight deck will be limited in relative wind speeds above 40 knots. The relative wind
direction is also limited to +/- 15 degrees off of the bow. Launch and recovery operations while
the relative wind angle is outside of the criteria envelope results in unacceptable crosswinds or
turbulence for safe and efficient operations.
4.2 Operational Cases used for the Evaluation of the Loitering Criteria
143
The limited relative wind speed envelope necessary to conduct fixed wing aircraft operations
defines the operational cases used for the evaluation of the vessel motions to the loitering
criteria. The vessel has been evaluated from sea states 2 through 6, with forward speed required
to maintain 40 knots of relative wind speed over the deck.
A plot of vessel speed vs. sea state is shown in Figure 4.2.1 below.

The curve in the data represents the actual wind speed associated with the sea states used in the
analysis. The horizontal requirement lines represent the range of acceptable wind speeds over
deck for aircraft operations. The difference between the horizontal requirement lines and the
actual wind speed curve defines the vessel speed required to obtain apparent wind speed for
aircraft operations. Assuming that a minimum vessel speed of 10 knots is required to maintain
maneuverability, the upper limit of aircraft operations is reached when the actual wind speed
reaches 30 knots. As such, it can be seen in Figure 4.2.1 that aircraft operations are feasible in
sea states up to approximately sea state 5.5.

Insufficient Forward Speed to Maintain Maneuverability
Sea State
For this analysis, it has been assumed that increased speed will result in increased motions.
Therefore, the vessel has been evaluated with the maximum vessel speed possible in sea states 2
through 5.5 that will maintain no more than 40 knots of wind speed over the deck. The minimum
vessel speed column in Table 4.2.1 is presented for reference only.
4.3 Transit Criteria
The motion and seakeeping criteria for the vessel while under transit conditions have been
derived from the seakeeping criteria for the transit and patrol mission for a NATO Generic
Frigate (Reference 1). The limits for the transit condition are listed in Table 4.3 as single
amplitude RMS values of roll displacement (angle), pitch displacement (angle), vertical and
lateral acceleration, bottom slamming and propeller emergence.
Table 33: TRANSIT CRITERIA
Parameter Limit Value
Roll Angle 4.0 deg
Pitch Angle 1.5 deg
Vertical Acceleration 0.2 g
Lateral Acceleration 0.1 g
Bottom Slamming Index 20 occurrences per hour
Propeller Emergence Index 90 occurrences per hour
The roll displacement (angle) criterion for the transit condition is independent of the roll period.
The pitch displacement (angle) criterion is independent of the pitch period of the vessel. The
transit criteria are shown in further detail in Section 2 of this report.
4.4 Operational Cases used for the Evaluation of the Transit Criteria
145
The HALLS trimaran has been evaluated for a matrix of Sea States, Wave Headings, and
forward Vessel Speeds. The load cases that have been used to evaluate the motions criteria of the
vessel are shown in Table 4.4 below.

APPENDIX G: Comments for Industry Experts
Comments by a Major Engineering and Construction Company
The Herbert Engineering Corp./SPAR Associates shipbuilding model for its commercial yard
is not a traditional U.S. new ship construction yard. Its physical facilities, organizational
structure, staffing, processes and procedures and approach to detail design and construction are
different from the long established American shipyards. This model is conceived to avoid the
legacy shipbuilding infrastructure, business practices and mode of operation of many of the
existing US yards that build large ships. This is because the performance of these shipyards has
been degraded by decades of being responsive to US government contract requirements and
military ship program acquisition rules, regulations and business procedures. Instead a non-
traditional, more modern shipbuilding model has been developed using different business
practices including a strong overall program management organization and substantial out
sourcing of major pre-outfitted hull modules to qualified mid-tier shipyards, fabricators and
marine system suppliers as described in this report.
A $300 million annual revenue construction company called Cianbro located in Pittsfield, Maine
has reviewed our commercial ship design and construction approach and our resulting cost
estimates using the knowledge gained from many years of very successful large construction
project experience. Cianbro evaluated the non-traditional, more modern shipbuilding model
described in this report and agreed that it is sound. They believe that a diverse, innovative
company with strong project management capability, like Cianbro, could do it. A company like
Cianbro capable of managing and building diverse, technically complex projects on a tight
budget and schedule could apply the same means and methods to build a ship. They know it
works because they have done it on their marine projects.
Cianbro does major construction projects in New England and the Middle Atlantic States. They
are known for successfully completing large construction jobs ranging from relatively straight
forward big box store construction and highway bridges to uniquely challenging projects like
transmitting central power station electric power from state to state through under ocean
transmission lines and decommissioning obsolete nuclear power plants.
During the last five years Cianbro has expanded its construction market to include difficult
marine construction projects. Cianbro completed the semi-submersible drilling rigs partially
built by Friede & Goldman Halter before declaring bankruptcy and also completed a 120,000
Deadweight Ton ConocoPhillips Polar Tanker originally contracted to Northrop Grumman Ship
Systems Avondale Shipyard Operation. The challenge for Cianbro was, respectively, to
complete the large rig construction halted by a bankruptcy and to correct deficiencies and
complete tanker construction work not done by Avondale. Both these projects were successfully
completed in the early 2000s. Currently Cianbro is the prime contractor with support from Bath
Iron Works as a major subcontractor to convert two sulfur carriers into US Flagged, new
generation, 370 foot long multi-purpose offshore supply vessels. They will be the largest
MPSVs in the world.
Cianbro is familiar with Bethlehem Steel Companys former Sparrows Point Shipyard graving
dock facility. They are currently participating in the outfitting of a 146,000 barrel oil barge
being assembled in the dock under a subcontract to the barge owner. They are evaluating the
150
former Sparrows Point facility in combination with Cianbros steel fabrication plant across
Baltimore Harbor as a desirable site to establish a new shipbuilding capability in Baltimore,
Maryland.
Cianbro does not pretend to be a fully integrated shipbuilder. Although they have several steel
fabricating operations, Cianbro is not an integrated shipbuilding operation or even an
experienced ships structure fabricator. But they are a very successful project manager and
general constructor of large and technically challenging projects and are gaining marine project
management and construction experience. As such they are an excellent company model to use
in the HALSS production and cost analysis evaluation of a new and creative approach to
affordable shipbuilding in the USA.
Cianbro has reviewed the HALSS project build strategy and all three of the cost estimates
prepared for their evaluation (Commercial yard, Dual-use yard and Combatant yard estimates).
While not claiming to be a shipbuilder today, Cianbro believes that starting with a well
engineered contract design developed further into the first stage of the detail design (the
functional design) they could manage the completion of the detail design of HALSS using well
qualified design subcontractors and be the prime construction contractor using partnerships with
major shipyards to procure pre outfitted modules from other shipyards, steel fabricators and ship
machinery and outfit suppliers. This belief is based on four important conditions:
1. The Navy provides a well conceived and engineered contract design package as the basis
for a two phase design and acquisition program:
- Functional design and ship construction program plan (Phase 1)
- Final detail design and construction (Phase 2)
2. The starting point of the detail design and construction contract is a well engineered
functional design (or approved Classification Society Drawings package in commercial ship
construction terms) and a comprehensive program plan covering the final detail design and
construction phase. The functional design includes:
- all the final basic ship design engineering
- evaluation of all the significant ships systems and equipment alternatives
- preparation of detailed purchase specifications for and the selection and purchase of all
major ships equipment
- a detail test requirements evaluation and program plan
- and finally solicitation and evaluation of detail proposals from ship hull block
construction subcontractors and selection of and proforma subcontracts with the major
partners providing preoutfitted grand blocks
.
Functional engineering is a comprehensive engineering phase carried down to the point
just prior to initiating preparation of the detail construction drawings and instructions to
the yard, detailed bills of material, purchase specifications for non-major material, test
procedures and other detail design deliverables. This functional design and program plan
phase would be funded by the government on a cost plus fixed fee basis.
3. The detail design and construction phase (Phase 2) contract has a comprehensive
escalation clause that covers the prime contractor against special and unusual material
cost increases (like spikes in steel and copper prices) as well as normal inflationary
material and labor cost increases based on indices.
151
4. Final pricing of Phase 2 is done late in Phase 1 after major material suppliers and hull
block subcontractors are selected.
Cianbros VP level business development, engineering and estimating management and the
Cianbro special projects manager have all evaluated the HALSS project design and construction
approach and the cost estimates. Although not currently in a position to quantify the differences
cost element by cost element, they believe they could manage the design and construct the ship
at a lower cost than a dual-use shipyard. This is on the basis of the HALSS commercial ship
acquisition strategy operating as a construction contractor under commercial contract terms and
conditions, but under a Navy prime contract, and also with the four contracting provisions stated
above in place.
Comments by a Dual-use Shipyard
National Steel and Shipbuilding Company (NASSCO) was kind enough to review an earlier
estimate of the costs to design and build HALSS. These comments provided by the yards
Business Development management were compared to CER histories and rates for Dual-use
yards and updated adjustments made where appropriate. In general NASSCO considered the
ESTI-MATE created labor, overhead, material markup and profit rates to be reasonable. They
also said that joining one side hull to the other side hull and center hull in the water wont be
easy, but it can probably be done.
The bigger challenge is to float the HALSS center hull and one side hull out of their relatively
shallow graving dock. Using a float out draft of 15 7, which is less than the occasional
maximum tide value of 17 feet, nine inches, HEC has designed floatation barges and a ballasting
scheme that can float HALSS out of NASSCOs dock.
A major NASSCO comment was to reduce both the detail design and the construction time
periods, and this was done. Both the detail design and the construction time periods were
reduced by six months for a total reduction of detail design and contract time of one year. The
longer total contract period of seven years were retained for the commercial and the combatant
yards. Commercial yards being smaller need more time to organize for and do the detail design
and construction. Combatant yards just take more time to do design and construction.
Comments from NASSCO provided valuable updated information. The resulting final cost and
price estimates for the Dual-use baseline case as given in Section 11.2 are consequentially lower
than originally provided to NASSCO. In addition the HALSS study team developed a cost
model for what we call a Dual-use Yard Bid Price. This model evaluates the cost elements in
the baseline estimate as though a very knowledgeable senior management team lead by the yard
general manager knew the outside market pricing environment and the internal shipyard cost
performance improvement situation. This capable team pushed and stretched to reduce the
HALSS cost element values and the resulting bid price. In this bidding environment evaluation
the bid price was reduced over 13% for the first ship as shown in table 11.2 4.
Comments by Commercial Shipyards
As in the case of NASSCO, Bender Shipbuilding and Atlantic Marine Holding (Atlantic Marine
Alabama) both reviewed the commercial shipyard estimates sent to them. Their costing and
pricing categories and structure differ, but in the end analysis after correlating the differences
152
they concurred with and validated the PERCEPTION ESTI-MATE CERs, shipyard cost rates,
material markups and price estimates.
Bender Shipbuilding and Repair Company has extensive facilities in Mobile, Alabama and
control over the operations of Tampa Bay Shipyard (TBS) in Tampa, Florida. In combination
these two yards can build HALSS by building one side hull attached to the center hull in drydock
basin number 2 in TBS and joining the other side hull to these two hulls in the water.
Alternatively, it may be possible to modify/extend TBS drydock basins number 1 and 2 to build
HALSS in one piece in the combined dock. This needs further investigation.
Designing and building HALSS is a huge effort. It fits the Atlantic Marine business plan to be a
major subcontractor building preoutfitted units, grand block modules and even complete side
hulls in support of the HALSS program. Two side hulls could be built side by side, joined by the
outboard bridge deck structure, launched as a catamaran and towed or self powered to an
assemble site like the Sparrows Point graving dock, separated, floated into the dock and joined to
the center hull. Alternatively, after launching the side hulls could be separated and joined to the
center hull in the water.
All these commercial shipyard and many other alternatives are evaluated and costed in the
referenced HALSS-CLASS TRIMARAN Build Strategy Alternatives & Independent Cost
Estimate Report.
