SHIP HULL BENDING CONTROL METHOD AT ITS DOCKING Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC B63B9/08 B63B9/00 B63C5/00 

FIELD: transportation.

SUBSTANCE: proposed method of the ship hull bending control, when it is placed at the dock, including the calculation of the required ship hull curvature and the stresses therein, and the ship installation on the blocking of the dock slip board. At least one sensor is installed in the controlled area of the hull to measure the stresses and/or deformations, in the intervals between the blocking symmetrically to the ship deck on the slip board lay the inflatable tanks with the possibility to supply the compressed air therein with the facilities to measure the pressure in them, preliminary calculate the pressure in the inflatable tanks, which will provide its required bending, taking into account the weight load of the ship and the flexural rigidity of its hull. The ship hull bending is corrected by changing the pressure in the inflatable tanks and changing of the blocking height to obtain the predetermined hull bending.

EFFECT: simplification of the ship hull bending control method, providing high accuracy and efficiency.
