To design a foam-filled fender system requires that the designer address four design criteria: (1) the applied berthing energy of the vessel, (2) the design climatological loads on the vessel, usually from wind and current, (3) the minimum stand-off distance between ship and pier, and (4) the allowable pressure on the vessel hull. This paper proposes rational design criteria to prevent yielding of vessel hull plating while approaching or at the berth.
