摘要

Coast Guard vessels are to satisfy not only the speed and stability for missions but also the comfortable ride for crew members as well. In the study, a 500 ton class coast guard ship is investigated for its stability in various sea conditions. Due to its specific function, the comfort is not considered significantly in this type of ship. To improve its stability and comport, an anti rolling tank (A.R.T.) device is applied to the ship and the effects to the stability were studied and compared.
