A New Method on Calculation of Vessels Stopping Distance and Crash Stopping Distance

Abstract:

There are many factors affecting vessels stopping distance and crash stopping distance, and it is very complicated to calculate them accurately. At present there are several calculation methods about them, but all these methods have large error. Based on the research of the existing calculation methods, this paper simplifies vessel resistance and calculates vessels stopping distance and crash stopping distance accurately by means of physical and mathematical methods.
