Submarine Manoeuvrability Design: Traditional Cross-Plane vs. x-Plane Configurations in Intact and Degraded Conditions

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Submarines’ manoeuvrability both in intact and degraded operating conditions is the main design concern starting at the very early stages of design. This increased complexity of the design process compared to a surface vehicle can only be handled by ...

Queckenstedt's manoeuvre [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2006
This paper describes the beginnings of the measurement of CSF pressure and its physiological fluctuations by Queckenstedt that culminated in his clinical test for spinal canal obstruction. In 1891, Walter Essex Wynter, physician to the Middlesex Hospital, described the insertion of a Southey’s tube to withdraw infected cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to ...

Investigation of Asymmetric Twin-Rudder Load Behaviour Through Free-Running Model Tests

open access: yesPolish Maritime Research, 2023
During tight manoeuvres, twin-screw ships equipped with two rudders located in the propeller slip stream experience a fairly large imbalance in the hydrodynamic loads on the propeller and rudders.

Joint Tracking of Manoeuvring Targets and Classification of Their Manoeuvrability [PDF]

open access: yesEURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing, 2004
A mixed two-dimensional diffusion process with a varying local dispersion matrix is considered. This matrix is proposed to be a semi-Markov process with two states. The mixed process is being observed at time instants constituting a regular lattice.

Wind prevents cliff-breeding birds from accessing nests through loss of flight control

open access: yeseLife, 2019
For fast-flying birds, the ability to respond to wind during landing is critical, as errors can lead to injury or even death. Nonetheless, landing ability, and its ecological significance, remain unstudied.

Nonlinear URANS model for evaluating course keeping and turning capabilities of a vessel with propulsion system failure in waves

open access: yesInternational Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2022
The loss of ship propulsion has been reported to be the most frequent cause of accidents at sea over the last few years. The loss of propulsive power has a notable effect on the behaviour of a ship during ship manoeuvring, and hence the manoeuvrability ...
