The maximum acceleration occurs for accident situation 2. As for <strong>the</strong> rst large vessel analyse,<br />

Vessel No. 11, <strong>the</strong> calculated accelerations are considerably smaller than for <strong>the</strong> previous<br />

analysed vessels. Never<strong>the</strong>less in <strong>the</strong> accident condition <strong>of</strong> Vessel No. 11, <strong>the</strong> Chicago Express,<br />

<strong>the</strong> transversal accelerations on <strong>the</strong> bridge exceeded 1.0 g (refer to BSU investigation report [1])!<br />

The statistical distribution <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> transversal accelerations in this situation is shown in gure<br />

4.28.<br />
