77.Static & Dynamic stability

October 13, 2018 Posted by AK No comments
STATIC STABILITY:-

1) It is defined as the ability of a ship to regain its upright equilibrium position, after the              removal of external factor which caused the vessel to heel at an angle.
2) It gives the stability information of a vessel under the condition that the outside water is        static.
3) It is expressed in terms of metacentric height. i.e. GM ( for angle of heel up to 10 degree)      and righting lever GZ ( for angle of heel above 10 degree)
4) It’s unit is meter
5) Static stability at two different angle of heel can be the same.

DYNAMIC STABILITY:-

1) It is defined as the energy required heeling the ship from upright equilibrium till the angle      of heel in question.
2) It gives the stability information of a vessel considering dynamic behavior of the sea.
3) It is expressed in terms of the area under righting moment curve. ( or GZ curve multiplied      by displacement of the ship in tons)
4) It’s unit is ton-meter-radian
5) The dynamic stability at two different angle of heel cannot be the same
