The arrangement of side lights on a 210 000 DWT bulk carrier is taken as the example to compare the advantages and disadvantages of three types of side light arrangements in consideration of the actual navigation and operational status of the ship,according to the unified explanation of the International Maritime Organization MSC.1/Circ.1577 communication letter regarding the relationship with the Convention on the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea.The result shows that the arrangement of side lights on the A-deck of the superstructure is the optimal way.The finite element analysis is conducted on the strength of the side light base of the A-deck arrangement and the influence of ship vibration sources on the side light base.The results of actual ship test and vibration measurement research indicate that the arrangement can meet the requirements of unified interpretation and can be a reference for the design of side lights on bulk carriers.
