This study proposes an advanced empirical formula shape, which is a function of plate slenderness ratio and column slenderness ratio with two (2) correction coefficients (C1 and C2), used to predict the ultimate strength performance of stiffened panel structures in ships. In addition, the two aforementioned correction coefficients were decided and verified by obtaining the result of an ANSYS nonlinear finite element analysis. An average level of initial imperfection and 2 bay � 2 span (1/2 � 1 � 1/2) model were adopted in the proposed empirical formula. The effects of residual strength were not considered in this study. A total of 124 stiffened panels with four different plate slenderness ratios (β) and changing column slenderness ratio (λ) were selected for the simulation scenarios. To confirm the accuracy of the obtained formula, a statistical analysis was also conducted on the ANSYS results and other existing formulas. The proposed method and its details were documented. © 2017 date: 2017 publisher: Elsevier Ltd official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85019753002&doi=10.1016%2fj.oceaneng.2017.05.031&partnerID=40&md5=718985b363c8b9dfa7d24a6459f6f35b id_number: 10.1016/j.oceaneng.2017.05.031 full_text_status: none publication: Ocean Engineering volume: 140 pagerange: 270-280 refereed: TRUE issn: 00298018 citation: Kim, D.K. and Lim, H.L. and Kim, M.S. and Hwang, O.J. and Park, K.S.
