Abstract

In this paper, new intact stability criteria of IMO have been analyzed. The primary goal of the second

generation intact stability criterion is to assess a ship's safety level in terms of robust stability measures.

However, due to the restricted human resources and facilities required for experimental verification of

numerical equipment, such an approach may not be applicable to all new vessels subject to 2008 IS Code.

International Maritime Organization (IMO) urges interested parties and Member States to first analyze a ship's

risk level using simpler criteria. These are known as vulnerability criteria. In this study, a roro ship has been

evaluated according to the 2nd Degree stability criterion and compared with the experimental results.
