When a historic wooden ship experiences hogging from wave action, which mechanism increases stress amidships?

💡 Explanation

Hogging increases Longitudinal bending moment because the ship's ends are supported by crests, therefore the hull experiences significant bending along its length, rather than compression or torsion; shear stress is a separate effect.
