Vibration analysis is a crucial process in ship design to guarantee crew’s comfortability and to save operating costs by predicting problematical resonance in advance. This study focuses on idealizing fluid mass in tanks by positioning point mass element and quad elements inside the tanks. Also, the added mass effect induced sea water surrounding a ship was included in the present study. The natural frequency obtained from free and forced ship vibration analysis were compared and assessed in the manner of ISO regulation. Finally, it was concluded that the quad element was more adequate to idealize fluid entities in tanks since it was difficult in arranging point mass elements at each grid points properly.
