[en] In the present report concerning Task 4.0 – Subsystem Optimization of the Structure Scantling, the structural optimization of the ship is carried out. This optimization is performed with regard to the objective functions and the constraints defined in Deliverables 2.0 & 3.0 [1]. Task 4.0 is divided into three parts:
- The initial scantling
- The load cases and loadings
- The optimized scantling
This report presents the results and benefits of optimization. Comments and analysis are provided throughout the report.
