Numerical Investigation of Residual Strength of Steel Stiffened Panel Exposed to Hydrocarbon Fire

Ships and ship-shaped offshore installations can be exposed to hydrocarbon fires and explosions. These dangers have serious consequences for human health, structural safety, and the surrounding environment Current industrial practices develop an initial design prediction to prevent and mitigate the escalation of accidental events, which requires appropriate understanding of related design methods and effectiveness. The safety concerns are reflected in current regulations and guidelines for qualitative or quantitative fire and explosion risk analysis (QRA) and
