Lecture 4:
Longitudinal Strength of Ships Murray’s Method for SWBM Estimation Introduction
In this lecture we will • Discuss Murray’s Method to estimate still water bending
moments ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Murray’s Method Murray’s method is based on the idea that forces and moments in a ship are self-balancing (no net force or moment is transferred to the world). Any set of weight and buoyancy forces are in balance.
Also, for any cut at x, the moment at the cut can be determined in two ways;

Murray applied this idea to a ship:
where ff,fa are the distances from the to the centers of weight (fore and aft) gf,ga are the distances from the to the centers of buoyancy (fore and aft) The bending moment at midships is; aaaa gfW ∆−= or ffff gfW ∆−=
These are two ‘estimates’ of the maximum bending moment. We can combine the two, and increase our accuracy, by taking the average of the two;

Murray suggested a set of values for x , as a function of the ship length, block coefficient and the ratio of draft to length;

Example using Murray’s Method Ship: Tanker L=278m, B=37m, CB=0.8 Assume wave bending moment is; WBMsag = 583800 t-m WBMhog = 520440 t-m The vessel weights, and weight bending moments are as follows;

Lecture 4 – Problems. 1. For the example of Murray’s method in the lecture, remove the cargo
weight and add 4000 t of ballast, with a cg of 116m fwd of midship. Re-calculate the maximum sag and hog moments (both still water and wave).
2. For the example of Murray’s method in the lecture, instead of using the weight locations as given, assume that the weights are distributed according to Prohaska. Re-calculate the SWBM.
