Recommendations based on simplified analytical treatments are advanced to help reduce number of accidents caused through difficulties in berthing larger size ships; problems associated with specification of motion of ship on water surface, determination of factors of combined translation and rotation, berthing to dolphins, beams and to wharves and piers, choice of first impact, and improvement of impact conditions are discussed.
