A Study on Emergency Ship Handling Against Tsunami for Moored Vessel in Harbor Basin by Intentional Ship Grounding

In the author's study, the disaster survey and analysis on a moored VLCC's behavior during the Pacific Coast of Tohoku Earthquake Tsunami at 14:46 JST, on 11 March 2011 was done by using the numerical simulation methods on ship motions and tsunami. On the other hand, several questionnaires for the moored vessels encountered with the disaster were reported, and it has been recognized that emergency evacuation from the harbor basin to an outside harbor is very difficult due to the lack of tug assistance and supports of the ship mooring lines, and the black-out that occurs during the tsunami and after the earthquake. In order to find an effective emergency ship handling against tsunami for the moored vessel under the circumstances, an intentional ship grounding (stranding) before tsunami attacking has been investigated.
