The article concerns the problem of evacuation from passenger ships. It is important because it has not yet been possible to eliminate all the hazards associated with sea travel. In this paper, a concept of a method allowing to determine the arrangement of evacuation routes, for which evacuation time would be minimal, was presented. The genetic algorithm method was used in the calculations, and an original method of coding the considered problem was proposed. Sample calculations were performed to verify the correctness of the proposed algorithm. The results of applying the developed method to calculate the evacuation time on a real passenger ship are presented.

The ro-ro passenger ship is a type of passenger ship which is commonly seen in Europe. After the tragedy of MV Estonia, an effective evaluation of escape routes in passenger ship in the initial stage of ship design has been required by International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) Convention. To reduce the loss of life in passenger ships at sea, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) has created the revised guidelines on evacuation analyses for new and existing passenger ships. This article followed IMO's mandatory guidelines via using the hydraulic model of emergency egress to scrutinize the evacuation routes, congestion points, and the total evacuation duration of MV Tai Hwa.

The importance of the line shafting, tailshaft, propeller, and thrust shaft cannot be over-emphasised. Failure of any one of them will rend the ship inoperable with possible disastrous consequences. Single line shafting is used on the majority of ships, but not in passenger ships and on short voyage ro-ro services where twin screws are employed. Propellers, because they are outside the ship, are often neglected and are usually only inspected when the ship is in drydock. More frequent examination can be undertaken when a ship is alongside and the shafting is being rotated with the turning gear. Damage to the propeller blade can lead to vibrations being set up in the line shafting causing overheating of the shafting bearings, main thrust, etc. The selection of shafting and propeller materials is usually within manufacturers’ specifications and complies with the various classification society requirements as well as the statutory requirements of governments.

Indonesia located at a ring of fire was a country with the threat level earthquake and tsunami that is high. Various activities and socialization has done by government to prepare people to face all possibilities that happens during and after the earthquake and tsunami hit. Various facilities such as signs for evacuation instruction, simulation evacuation, and installation of alarm are prepared to assist in minimizing risk caused by tsunami and earthquake. This paper shows the system to determine shortest track in the tsunami evacuation routes in Padang West Sumatra. The selection of Padang is based on the earthquake disaster which tsunami potential ever happened in this town and claimed casualties quite a lot. In this paper, is selected the number of the track that can be follow when the citizens of the city of Padang would do the evacuation line of sector VI. Some of the selected path is shortest routes to secure areas in   by pass road Padang. The shortest distance to the safe sector with the starter point Pasar Raya to road by pass is 9 km using the route - RS. Padang-Aisyiah Jl. Agus Salim-Jl. Sawahan GIS-Haru-Simpang Jl. Andalas-Jl.

Several marine accidents was occured in Indonesia. Passenger evacuation is considerd as the last defence, which is used for eliminating the consequences of marine accidents. According to the convention of Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS), the passenger evacuation simulation shall be conducted for reviewing the evacuation route on ships. The pasenger evacuation time is limited 60 minutes for roro passenger ships and for passenger ship having three main vertical zone is limited less than 80 minutes. It is hipotesed that the walking speed and passenger distribution is not represented the character of all nation in the world. Therefore, this research focus on the observation walking speed and distribution in ferry, in order to ensure that whether the guideline (M.Sc. 1238) could be represented in the condition in Indonesia’s vessels or not. The results of research show that the diferences result of passenger evacuation simulation between Indonesia’s and guideline’s walking speed is much closed. On the contrary, the distribution of passenger on the ship in the guideline could not represent the real condition in Indonesia.

The purpose of this code is to provide international standards for the management and safe operation of ships and pollution prevention Furthermore, this study has the objective to identify the role of the ISM Code on maritime activities in Indonesia, knowing the perceptions and attitudes regarding the conduct of the crew boat ISM Code. Location research is conducted on the crew that was in the Port of Tanjung Priok in Jakarta. Data collection and processing is done for 3 months. The study was conducted using a survey approach by distributing questionnaires to the crew (respondents) from different hierarchy. Respondents were asked to fill out questionnaires about the intentions of the respondents in the implementation and compliance with the ISM Code safety rules for shipping. The primary data used in this study were obtained by a structured interview to the crew of passenger ships carrying commodities and goods in the country. Selection of boats done by purposive method, which is the selected ship types ship transporting passengers and goods in the domestic commodities. While the selection is done by the crew convenience method which is one form of non-random sampling methods or non-probabilistic unrestricted. The selection of the crew carried out when the ship was leaning / docked in the port of Tanjung Priok Jakarta and Merak port in Banten. Based on these results it can be concluded in general that the respondents are interested in the concept of the ISM Code as ineffectively to be more related to the supervision of the safety of shipping. It is turns out to be a featured subject of their compliance with the ISM Code as well as the application of this rule is also easy to understand. However, not all respondents are interested in the ISM Code, this is because the respondents consider that the ISM Code executed is just a formality and then it is not supported by the safety adequate equipment, non-compliance crew also based on the lack of socialization of the ISM Code.

Abstract In this article is presented the methodology of calculation of principal parameters of hull a vessel and resistance components. The approximate method is based on the analysis of the results of model tests and surrender tests presented in the literature. Ship owners' preliminary assumptions for new ship consist of deadweight, speed-shipping line and others. This goal needs definition of principal dimensions of a vessel, which are the basis for further calculations of hull’s resistance and evaluation of necessary power of main engine to fulfil shipping requirements. The route and its environment, type of cargo, quantity to be moved, and value of the cargo and port facilities are typical features, which will be considered when evolving the size, speed, and specification of a suitable ship. Specific service requirements will be similarly considered when evolving vessels such as warships, passenger ships or fishing vessels. Selection of main dimensions of vessel is limited by related to seaways or harbours characteristic and limitations rules regarding buoyancy, stability, hull strength, manoeuvring capability, etc. The influence of the main dimensions of the ship and their coefficients of maritime and strength properties of the ship were presented. Moreover, formulas for calculation of the ship's resistance components, such as friction resistance, and wave shape, as well as the results of calculations for different types of ships, for the assumed deadweight and speed of sailing, are presented.
