In this contribution, a novel design strategy is investigated for improving the crashworthiness of double-hull vessels, which involves usage of granular materials. For numerical simulation, a framework based on coupling of the Discrete Element and the Finite Element Method is used to study load bearing capacity of granular materials during uniaxial compression. In addition, the effect of Young's modulus of particles is also investigated with respect to the load transferability.
