The motion, velocity, and acceleration responses at ship center of gravity (CG) in long-crested seas were predicted for a preliminary conventional hull design of a new class of nuclear-powered, guided-missile strike cruiser. Time histories from the computer predictions are stored on computer permanent files for easy access and future use. Recently developed techniques for determining ship response time histories at various locations other than the ship CG and in short-crested seas were used to calculate sample time histories of important ship responses. A computer program was developed to read the predicted time histories and compute probabilities that specified motion response limits would be exceeded for various time periods. (Author)
