with current technology even ships giants manage to remain stable even in the most extreme weather conditions extreme and you know what's more impressive the smaller ships modern ones that were designed by Top-level engineers have the ability to straighten up automatically when they are turned by the waves in this video you will understand everything about this mysterious technology that makes the ships are sink-proof or almost that when the ship is sailing by sea he ends up facing a series of forces and pressures of the waves and the wind here on the channel You have seen several
giant ships weighing hundreds of thousands of tons and still remain firm and strong even when they are hit by giant waves to survive this all ships built TM a system of stability which is basically the balance of the ship in the water then when the ship is rocked by the waves or by the wind he can straighten himself again There are several devices used to maintain the stability of the ship And then you begin to understand that everything there is extremely designed so that this giant stay firm even in situations extreme the lateral keels TM
one wing or fin shape and are installed on the side of the ship's hull they extend for about 23 of the length of the vessel and the more the faster the ship travels the more effective they are are to help keep the ship more stable and avoid so much swinging vessels have another type of known stability device as an anti-roll tank that is basically a tank that helps maintain the ship is stable when it tilts to one side or the other he is installed in the width of the ship and when the vessel tilts to
one side water contained in this tank moves in the opposite direction counterbalance the movement and considerably reducing the excessive inclination of the vessel this works as a dynamic counterweight helping to keep the ship more stable in sea conditions stirred the next type of device stability is the active stabilizer of fins which is basically a device with a fin shape that helps to reduce the rocking or tilting motion of the ship it is installed on both sides of the vessel's hull and can move in several directions these fins are are controlled by something called a system
The ship's sensitive gyroscopic is like a brain that senses when the ship is shaking too much when this happens gyroscopic system Sends a signal to another system that can be activated with electricity and water this adjusts the fins and stabilizes the ship however these fins are not very effective when the ship is sailing H less than 10 knots on container ships we have additional systems of stability one of them is the anti system slope which is basically a system zero control designed to maintain the ship level during loading and unloading at ports this system cannot
be used as a system of stabilization on the high seas and it only works during loading and unloading of the containers it detects the angle of tilt of the ship and automatically balances the vessel by pumping water from one side to the other this system has some important parts a dashboard main control a panel that connects the pump and the anti-tilt pump can it work both automatically how much manual the stability of the ship is influenced by something called points of balance that are like the right points of weight to keep the ship stable is
how to balance a bike if you putting the weight wrongly can fall then it is important that the crew always take these points into account balance one of the main causes of accident is negligence in calculations of stability of the ship whether it is sailing or not port besides cargo ships we have also the small rescue ships that are used for search operations and rescue helping accident victims seafarers during these rescues extreme weather conditions and waves giants can disrupt operations and even turn the ship to face this challenge Engineers from all over the world have
created Rescue ships with a characteristic only the ability to self-indirect This means that these ships can return to its original position even after turning 180º is an impressive innovation that significantly increases the safety and effectiveness of operations maritime rescue in addition to straightening these boats can accelerate a lot and withstand all sea conditions there are several fundamental elements that allow these boats to straighten themselves and return to position original first the initial design of the boat where all the heavy equipment and objects should be positioned as much as possible low as possible inside the vessel
this contributes to a center of gravity lowest essential to maintain the stabilize and facilitate the self-care process straightening in case of overturning of this the area of operations and control of crew must be designed to be light, sturdy and well ventilated door access also needs to be proof water ensuring that water does not enter when the ship turns these details are crucial to ensuring safety and the efficient functioning of the ship even in extreme these boats also T one pendulum system designed to avoid that water enters the interior of the ship during operation the movement
of a pendulum follows the laws of physics especially the laws of motion pendulum it is influenced by factors like gravity the length of the thread or the force applied to start the movement when the boat turns the weights of the pendulum system move vertically actuating in a way automatic closing of sections open to prevent water from entering In addition there is an on-board system that detects the boat's capsizing and enters in Action immediately he turns off the radar and the engines as a safety measure Before starting the process straightening the boat back to its original
position as soon as the boat returns normal position of the radar and engines restart In addition the members of the crew inside the boat need be seated and wearing seat belts to ensure the efficiency of the system If you like ships, check out this video that we boarded a tugboat to the next video said [Music]
