Abstract
The paper presents the results of the noise propagation analysis in ship
structures tested in a number of AHTS (Anchor Handling Tug Supply)
vessels. Statistical Energy Analysis (SEA) based on numerical model
developed specially for the purpose of this numerical investigation were
conducted. This numerical model enabled the analysis of both the
structural elements and the acoustic spaces. For the detailed studies 47
points fixed at various ship locations were selected. Prediction results
with use of the numerical model were compared with the experimental
results carried out in six identical AHTS vessels. Experimental studies
were performed in accordance with the requirements of the International
Maritime Organization (IMO) Resolution A.468 (XII). As a result one
presented a comparison of the model analysis and experimental tests
results.
