Strukturellt brandskydd på marina farkoster – Analytisk dimensionering av brandsektioneringar samt utvärdering av flexibla brandtätningar genom viktat urval

Sammanfattning: This master thesis is written at the request of Kockums AB to solve the need for flexible fire barriers on submarines, particularly for the future submarine class A26. The report uses event tree analysis to demonstrate that a lower fire resistance classification for decks and bulkheads, compared to the prescriptive rules, is sufficient to obtain a satisfactory level of safety. The thesis also includes a product search with a simplified weighted decision analysis to determine which product is best suited to use at the flexible joints.
