Operational aspects of safety from the stability point of view
Abstract
Design stability standards were ultimately adopted by IMO quite recently. The designers and operators of ships are, however, aware that the standards do not constitute an ultimate solution. At present much attention is devoted to the operational aspects of stability because it is well known that 70 to 80% of casualties are caused by human unreliability. The author considers operational aspects of stability including human factor and discusses several methods necessary to deal with the situation in order to safeguard safe ship operation in various weather conditions.
