This paper concerns the analysis and simulation of a grounding accident from a structural point of view. A procedure is presented to assess the damage of a grounded ship. A non-linear finite-element method is used to simulate the bottom damage until a certain penetration or fracture limit is reached. An appropriate non-linear strain and stress measure describes the material behaviour including fracture. The procedure is validated against a case study of a grounded Suezmax tanker.
