Next-Generation Maritime Survival: Modular Detachable Hulls, Pressure-Resistant Encapsulation, and Seawater-Derived Oxygen Systems

This research paper presents a futuristic ship safety and survival system designed to protect passengers during maritime disasters. The proposed concept introduces a detachable two-part ship structure, where the upper passenger module can separate from the lower hull in emergencies. It also features an encapsulation shield made of pressure-resistant materials, integrated oxygen tanks, and a seawater oxygen extraction system for long-term survival. The paper highlights its potential role in improving global maritime safety, advancing shipbuilding innovation, and contributing to sustainable development goals (SDGs).
