Air blast injuries killed the crew of the submarine H.L. Hunley. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
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]

open access: yes, 2015
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.

Analysis of Load and Lubrication State of Racks and Pinions of Three Gorges Ship Lift Based on Actual Service Conditions

open access: yesJixie chuandong, 2023
The rack and pinion of the three gorges ship lift is a low speed and heavy load open gear transmission with hard tooth surface. Once the lubrication is poor, it is easy to cause damage such as tooth surface scuffing, which will affect the operation ...

Parametric analysis of a cabin fire using a zone fire model

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal, 2013
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]

open access: yes, 2014
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 ...
