Abstract

Shocks by waves, slamming, of the wet deck (the bottom of inter- hull structure) is a specific disadvantage of all multi-hull ships. It means the decreasing of such slamming is an important problem of  a  multi-hull  ship  designing  and  creation.  The  problem  is divided  by  two  parts:  motion  mitigation  and  shock  elimination. Some methods of longitudinal motion mitigation of various multi- hulls are examined and compared. In addition, some methods of shock  pressure  decreasing  are  shown  too.  As  the  results,  some general and particular recommendations are proposed.
