DESIGN OF FENDERS

BERTHING MODE
Side Berthing
Berthing Angle = 30
Hull contact Angle with the Fender or Angle of Approach = 600
Velocity of Vessel = 20m/s

BERTHING ENERGY
NORMAL ENERGY
EN = 0.5 X M X VB2 X CM X CE X CC X CS

= 0.5X82.65X 0.179X1.8X1.0X1.0X1.0
= 13.315KNm
Where,
EN = Normal berthing Energy
M = Mass of Vessel
= 82.65
VB = Approach Velocity perpendicular to the berthing line
= 0.179m/s
Cm = Added mass coefficient
= 1.8
CE = Eccentricity coefficient
= 1.0
Cc = Berthing configuration coefficient
= 1.0
Cs = Softness coefficient
= 1.0

ABNORMAL ENERGY
EA = FS X EN
= 2.0X130.491
= 26.631KNm
Where,
Fs = Factor of safety for abnormal berthing
= 2.0
EA = Abnormal Energy
EN = Normal Energy

FENDER SELECTION

Efficiency = Energy Absorbed /energy reaction generated

= E/R
= 26.631/84.3
= 0.316KN/m2/KN

FENDER PANEL DESIGN

For smaller vessels, the HULL PRESSURE is considered same as BELTING
FOR Aluminum Hull in light vessels
BELTING LOAD = 150KN/m
