Power Prediction Method for Ships Using Data Regression Models
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 This study proposes machine learning-based prediction models to estimate hull form performance. The developed models can predict the residuary resistance coefficient (CR), wake fraction (wTM), and thrust deduction fraction (t). The multi-layer perceptron

Efficiency of fish propulsion [PDF]
Bioinspiration & Biomimetics, 2015 It is shown that the system efficiency of a self-propelled flexible body is ill-defined unless one considers the concept of quasi-propulsive efficiency, defined as the ratio of the power needed to tow a body in rigid-straight condition over the power it needs for self-propulsion, both measured for the same speed. Through examples we show that the quasi-
