The selection, fitting and evaluation methods of response surface functions are expounded. The parameter sensitivity analysis of the cabin is carried out. The response surface functions of the stress and the vibration frequencies are constructed through the Box-Behnken experimental design method. Fitting inspection on the response surface functions is done with correlation coefficient, correction coefficient, etc. The results show that the response surface models are very similar to the real models. Four design variables are extracted randomly as the test sample of each response surface function. The data gotten by the response surface function are compared with the data gotten by the finite element analysis. The results show that the response surface models are with high accuracy and can reflect the real test values well. These response surface models can be used for further optimization design. They are helpful in reducing the ship mass without exceeding the allowable stress and resonance.
