A method is presented which enables the damage to a ship involved in a collision or grounding to be estimated in terms of the lost kinetic energy. The formulae derived are based upon dimensional analysis and involve two unknown coefficients. One of the unknowns is identified with the well-known Minorsky volume coefficient. The other unknown relates the absorbed energy to the area of the torn plate and is determined from a series of small scale tests conducted in Japan. (Author)
