Study of Applicability in Minimising Pitch Radius Gyration for Different Hull Types to Improve Seakeeping Performance [PDF]
This paper presents an optimisation study to determine the best centre of gravity (CoG) position to improve seakeeping performance. Two varied parameters used in this study were the longitudinal and vertical centre of gravity (LCG and VCG).

Efficient seakeeping performance predictions with CFD
Tack vare den stadigt ökande beräkningskraften kan beräkningsuiddynamik (CFD) idag användas på beräkningsintensiva problem som sjöegenskapssimulationer. Den här rapporten undersöker användning av CFD på sjöegenskapsprestanda och syftar till att foreslå ett best-practice förfaringssätt för effektiv sjöegenskapssimulationer.

Computational Investigation of Seakeeping Performance of a Surfaced Submarine in Regular Waves
A submarine is optimized to operate below the water surface because it spends most of its time in a submerged condition. However, the performance in free surface conditions is also important because it is unavoidable for port departure and arrival ...

Providing steps at the bottom of a high‐speed craft could decrease the resistance and enhance the longitudinal stability by dividing a single pressure hump into several ones and extending the hydrodynamic pressure towards aft of the vessel. In the present paper, the effects of the fore and aft steps’ locations and angles on double‐stepped hulls are ...

Abstract As autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) adoption increases, operators demand advanced behaviors from commercial off‐the‐shelf systems. However, new behaviors can often only be deployed operationally once assured. This paper overviews research into expediting recovery to an operator's vessel through a custom homing behavior, demonstrating ...

Autonomous hanging tether management and experimentation for an unmanned air‐surface vehicle team
Abstract The mission of an unmanned air vehicle (UAV) tethered to a small unmanned surface vehicle (USV) is considered. As opposed to the majority of existing tethered UAV work, which assumes a taut tether, this paper addresses the challenge of tether management for a slack, hanging tether in a dynamic ocean environment up to sea state 4 on the Douglas

Modal Investigation on a Large‐Scale Containership Model for Hydroelastic Analysis
A 20,000 TEU containership with an overall length of about 400 m is designed as a target ship to investigate ship hydroelastic characteristics in the joint industry project (JIP) of CSSRC‐20,000 TEU. A set of systematic model tests are carried out in the seakeeping wave basin of CSSRC.

Navigation control system is an important navigation building of inland‐river in China. Because of its special semiclosed structure, when the efficiency of the mutation control system is low, the ship system cannot identify the ship, which may endanger the life safety of the crew and cause water traffic accidents.

Numerical simulation of seakeeping performance of a trimaran small waterplane area center hull
[Objectives] Compared with trimarans, the trimaran small waterplane area center hull (TriSWACH)has a larger underwater ship and the waterline surface is greatly reduced,therefore,the seakeeping law of ordinary trimaran is not completely applicable to ...
