By mean linear digital simulation method, the collision forces ofthe collisions between rigid bridge pier and ship bow were calculated out for four different ships,whose tonnages are 5 000,10 000,50 000 and 60 000 DWT respectively. Curves of collisionforce-penetration and absorbed energy-penetration are obtained, and the data of the max loads arethen summarized. On the basis of these curves and data, a set of curves describing therelationships between max collision forces and tonnages of the ships are successfully presented, bywhich the max collision forces of the ships-bridge with different tonnages and in differentvelocities can be estimated easily and reliably.展开更多
