Structural stress evaluation at connection area between the suction arm and the hull for a trailing suction hopper dredger

The present paper presents the analysis of strees distribution over a dredge arm and its connection with the ship’s hull during operation. The study aims to a better understanding of the hull loading since there are no empirical formulas to determine forces that appear in this connection area. The a...
