Abstract: | Approximately 80% of the international transport of goods is carried on by means of ships. A large portion of the transport
capacity is represented by Roll-on-Roll-off (RoRo) ships. Especially in Europe this is a relevant potential for the RoRo segment.
Consequently, the design and construction of RoRo ships plays an increasing role for German shipyards and their suppliers.
In order to make the loading and unloading procedure of trailer economically more competitive, ship owners would like to improve
the lashing of trailers on the ship. On the basis of a multibody system formalism, a software tool has been developed which
allows for an optimization of the loading of trailers on RoRo ships.
