Attention being paid to the safe stowage management of dangerous cargo containers on board ships;

Stowage,securing and management of vehicles loaded onboard Ro/Ro passenger ships;

In order to provide the basis for the local strength calculation and security stowage of heavy(vehicle) Ro/Ro ships,according to the method of a simple flat panel local strength calculation,a calculating method about the local strength of heavy vehicle Ro/Ro ships is presented under operation of Ro/Ro ships,considering the effect of the hull decays and the vertical inertia force.

The relations between coefficients and the height or the loaded area of the structure are also obtained.

This article analyzes the unconfined compressive strength of sacked cemented-soil in parapet under the condition of different curing time,different accumulated load and being soaked or not.

Fussy-optimization ES for cargo stowage;

This paper,with a view to establishing the foundation for auto-stowage expert system for container ships,based on the status quo of the stowage process and application of the technology of knowledge process to container ships,puts forward the structure mechanism for the database and repository thereof by employing the technology of knowledge reasoning.

Thus, the concept of optimization using ANN and a mathmatical model are put forward for improving cargo stowage.

This paper gives an analysis on the current short - comings in the related teaching arrangement at most sea - faring instituions and offers the approaches as to how to improving the effect of teaching the cargo stowage designing.
