- Abstract
Safety is the most commonly discussed feature of maritime transport and the stability is one of the most critical features of seagoing ships. In nowadays, the assessment and calculation of ship's intact stability is based on stability criteria where the righting lever curve should be corrected for the effect of free surfaces of liquids in tanks. This method, consider only the static attitude towards the sloshing phenomenon and do not take into consideration the dynamic attitude and his influence. The paper examines the effect of fluid free surfaces in slack tanks on ship's transverse stability and presents considerations on the influence of tank filling level, by analysing the heeling moment caused by sloshing generated by a liquid with free surface and has the purpose of demonstrating the liquid free surface dynamics influence on ship's stability.
