Capsize of ship models in following/quartering waves: physical experiments and nonlinear dynamics

This paper presents experimental records for capsizing of ship models in following and quartering seas. Recorded capsizes have been classified into four modes: broaching, low cycle resonance, stability loss on a wave crest, and bow diving. Nonlinear dynamics were applied to broaching and low cycle resonance to reveal their qualitative and quantitative characteristics. For other modes, further investigation based on nonlinear dynamics should be encouraged.
