The present paper deals with the manoeuvrability of planing crafts. A previously developed mathematical model for the prediction of the 4+2 DOF boat motions is considered and direct CFD results for the evaluation of manoeuvring coefficients are used ...

Behaviorally Adaptive and Inclusive Advanced Driver‐Assistance Systems
Advanced driver‐assistance systems (ADASs) are mapped as evolving human‐centered, adaptive technologies linking sensing, driver monitoring, AR/HUD interfaces, patents, regulation, and inclusive design. The review identifies gaps in real‐world evidence, diverse‐driver validation, gaze metrics, and governance, outlining a roadmap for safer, behaviorally ...

Ship Mooring Methodology Designed for Ship Berthing in Extremely Limited Conditions
In some ports, there are separate very narrow places between the quays and other navigational obstacles, where the distance between the quays or between the quays and navigational obstacles is very small.

‘Turkeys Cannot Vote for Christmas’: Why Epistemic Disobedience in an Anti‐Black World Matters
ABSTRACT Never in the history of global coloniality has the idea of epistemic disobedience been as important as in the 21st century. This is not only because the struggle for decolonisation has shifted from physical confrontation between the coloniser and the colonised into a battle of ideas but also because the former has deployed the idea of ...

Abstract The crania of leporid lagomorphs are uniquely fenestrated, including the posterior cranial bones and the lateral portion of the maxilla. The functional significance of the highly fenestrated rostrum has received considerably little attention, despite being absent in other mammalian herbivores with a long rostrum.

A Simulator Study on Validation of IMO's Ship Manoeuvrability Standards with Particular Reference to Yaw-Checking and Course-Keeping Ability [PDF]
Recent marine disaster of large ships often causes serious oil pollution. To prevent or reduce such a disaster, International Maritime Organization(IMO) has been endeavoring to increase ships manoeuvrability, and adopted the interim standards for ship ...

Patterns of spinal motion, kinematic spaces and the land‐to‐sea transition in carnivorans
Using 3D reconstructions, we quantify intervertebral joint mobility to investigate how cervical, thoracic, and lumbar vertebral regions evolved distinct kinematic roles in pinnipeds. The findings reveal lineage‐specific adaptations for swimming and highlight the functional significance of vertebral joint flexibility in ecological transitions.

Scaling and ecomorphology of lagomorph body shape and appendicular skeleton
Abstract Body shape is one of the most prominent features of phenotypic variation. Yet, mammalian body shapes are poorly quantified and the underlying components contributing to its diversity and its relationship to other skeletal components are rarely tested.

Application of Identification Techniques for the Improvement of Manoeuvrability Predictions
The interest in manoeuvrability problems has grown during the last decade, with the adoption by IMO of the RESOLUTION A.751(18) and contemporarily with the establishment by NATO NG6 of a Specialist Team with the aim of developing corresponding criteria ...
