Cruise ships arriving in ports carry approximately 1000%3000 passengers and crewmembers. Such a concentration of people presents a high degree of risk in the event of a major disaster. To avoid the possibility of hazard events, the safety assessment is a mandatory document for every cruise ship. One of the methodologies for the systematic assessment of risk is a Formal Safety Assessment, a tool to determine and evaluate the risk of potential hazards. Deviations from predicted events could occur underway as well as at a port. Passenger terminals located in close proximity to other cargo terminals are additionally influenced by risks that are not manageable by the cruise ship safety management system. Possible accidents on cargo terminals, oil spills or fires could influence the safety of other ships and environment. A general approach is presented and discussed with particular focus on the specifics of the particular port, where the passenger terminal is close to other cargo terminals. The paper discusses the diverse aspects of safety analysis and methods for evaluation of individual and social risk.

The large deflection of an elastic cantilever rod pulled by cable is analysing in terms of the Jacobi elliptical functions. The problem is reduced to solution of a system of two transcendental equations which allow defining six different problems. All these problems are discussions and illustrated with graphs of equilibrium shapes and tables providing some reference numerical values.

In this paper, a solution for the equilibrium configuration of an elastic beam subject to three-point bending is given in terms of Jacobi elliptical functions. General equations are derived, and the domain of the solution is established. Several examples that illustrate a use of the solution are discussed. The obtained numerical results are compared with the results of other authors. An approximation formula by which the beam load is given as a polynomial function of beam deflection is also derived. The range of applicability of the approximation is illustrated by numerical examples.
