Virtual planar motion mechanism tests of the autonomous underwater vehicle autosub
, 2007 Hydrodynamic derivatives are used to model the manoeuvring performance of proposed and existing hull forms. A simple robust method, using unsteady RANS simulations is presented to numerically replicate the experimental PMM tests performed on a scale ...

Impacts of rudder profiles on ship manoeuvrability
, 2015 The performance of a ship’s rudder largely determines its manoeuvrability, which includes turning ability, initial turning ability, yaw-checking ability and course-keeping ability. However, existing empirical formulas for rudder forces do not concern the

Fin Whale (Balaenoptera physalus) Diel Dive Patterns in a Shallow Fragmented Foraging Habitat
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.Using 27 high‐resolution biologging tags deployed on fin whales in a shallow inner‐shelf habitat along the US east coast, this study found that the whales spent more than 67% of their time within the draft depths of large commercial vessels. Feeding occurred primarily during the day, while whales remained very shallow at night during resting and ...

Fish Scales: A Multifunctional Biomaterial from Nature
ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, Volume 9, Issue 5, September 2026.Fish scales demonstrate nature's solution to impact protection through overlapping multilayered architecture. This biological design combines mineralized surfaces with collagen networks to achieve both flexibility and fracture resistance. The structural principles inspire advanced protective materials and biomedical implants, where damage tolerance ...

AUGURAL TERRITORIES: On the Prophetic Organizing of the Mid‐range
International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, Volume 50, Issue 5, Page 1282-1297, September 2026.Abstract In this article I introduce the concept of augural territories to theorize the urbanism that emerged during pandemic lockdowns. I draw on ethnographic research in Madrid to examine how community‐based responses—including mutual aid networks, food pantries and neighbourhood associations—disrupted the spatial and temporal logics of territorial ...
