Japanese term

概略転覆

Japanese to English Tech/Engineering Ships, Sailing, Maritime Ship Stability
I am working on a paper dealing with hydrostatics and ship stability. The following sentence occurs in the section on dynamical stability of the ship.

What is the meaning of 概略転覆? What is its English equivalent?

これを船舶の転覆問題に当てはめると、ヘリコプターの着陸や突風のように時刻 t=0 で急に大きな横傾斜モーメントが作用したときに、どこまで横傾斜するのかがわかれば、概略転覆に至るかどうかを判断できる。

The 'これ' refers to the following principle:
一般に非減衰自由振動系において、時刻 t=0 で突然外力が作用し、その後一定の外力が作用し続ける(ステップ応答)問題では、実際の減衰力が作用する場合に比べて最大変位は大きなものになる。

roughly determine if it will capsize or not

概略 modifies 判断できる, not 転覆. It's the same as 転覆するか否かをだいたい判断することができる。
Note from asker:
Thank you. But Watanabe san's reference gives a different explanation.
