Consider a 9 hold bulk carrier, loaded with alternate holds empty and, others full of Iron Ore, sailing on an ocean passage, in storm conditions. Explain how the wavelength is produced naturally and how various wavelengths would have differing effects on the hull structure in this loaded condition.
Describe the actions that could have been taken to reduce the effects of loading and wave action in this case.
Explain in detail, the various motions which the hull of this vessel may experience during this period of its passage.
