Air blast injuries killed the crew of the submarine H.L. Hunley. [PDF]
The submarine H.L. Hunley was the first submarine to sink an enemy ship during combat; however, the cause of its sinking has been a mystery for over 150 years. The Hunley set off a 61.2 kg (135 lb) black powder torpedo at a distance less than 5 m (16 ft)

The dynamics of the floodwater and the damaged ship in waves [PDF]
The interaction between the dynamics of the floodwater and the damaged ship in waves is investigated by applying an integrated method, which couples a seakeeping solver and a Navier-Stokes solver.

Application of a new multi-agent Hybrid Co-evolution based Particle Swarm Optimisation methodology in ship design [PDF]
In this paper, a multiple objective 'Hybrid Co-evolution based Particle Swarm Optimisation' methodology (HCPSO) is proposed. This methodology is able to handle multiple objective optimisation problems in the area of ship design, where the simultaneous ...

Parametric analysis of a cabin fire using a zone fire model
Fire onboard has always been considered as one of the most relevant hazards to ships. As an effect of ship fires, toxic smoke might develop and start spreading from the compartment of fire origin to other connected compartments.

Complex oscillatory redox dynamics with signaling potential at the edge between normal and pathological mitochondrial function [PDF]
The time-keeping properties bestowed by oscillatory behavior on functional rhythms represent an evolutionarily conserved trait in living systems. Mitochondrial networks function as timekeepers maximizing energetic output while tuning reactive oxygen ...
