where:
- GZmax is the maximum positive residual righting lever (m) within the
range of 15° beyond the angle of equilibrium, but not more than 0.1 m;
- Range is the range of positive righting levers beyond the angle of equilibrium, in
degrees, but not more than 15°;
- Area is the area under the righting lever curve (m.rad), measured from the angle of
equilibrium to the lesser of the angles at which progressive flooding occurs, or 22°
(measured from the upright) in the case of a one-compartment flooding, or 27°
(measured from the upright) for the flooding of two or more adjacent compartments,
but not more than 0.015 m.rad.
- In respect of the `Area', please note that the allowable area is up to a heel
angle, measured from the upright 22°/27°, depending on whether flooding of a single
compartment or two adjacent compartments is concerned.
and c is determined according to the following:
|
c |
= |
1 where the final
angle of equilibrium θe is not more than 7°,
|
|
c |
= |
0 where the final angle of equilibrium θe is not more
than 20°, else |
