Nonlinear dynamics of close proximity ship towing
(Monterey California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2002-12)
The goal of this study is to investigate the nonlinear dynamics of two ships in close proximity towing. The sway and yaw dynamics of both the leading and the trailing ships were included in the formulation. Previous studies ...
A design procedure for seakeeping analysis of close proximity ship towing
(Monterey, Calif. Naval Postgraduate School, 2002-03)
The purpose of this thesis is to develop an efficient analysis and design procedure for assessing the seakeeping behavior of surface ships in close proximity towing. The problem is formulated by using the heave and pitch ...
A numerical study of combined convective and radiative heat transfer in a rocket engine combustion chamber
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2002-12)
A numerical study was conducted to predict the combined convective and radiative heat transfer rates on the walls of a small aspect ratio cylinder representative of the scaled model of arocket engine combustion chamber. A ...
Multi-criteria analysis in naval ship design
(Monterey California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2005-03)
Numerous optimization problems involve systems with multiple and often contradictory criteria. Such contradictory criteria have been an issue for marine/naval engineering design studies for many years. This problem becomes ...
Wave making resistance characteristics of trimaran hulls
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2003-12)
Recently, there has been an increased demand for high speed vessels both for military and commercial applications. Many navies are exploring the potential of novel hull forms as part of efforts to achieve transformation ...
Sensitivity analysis of the seakeeping behavior of trimaran ships
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2003-12)
The dynamic response of the ship while operating in different sea conditions is one of the design parameters of a hull form. The objective of this thesis is to analyze the seakeeping response of trimaran hulls. A ...
Coupled stability analysis of close proximity ship towing
(Monterey California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2002-03)
The scope of this thesis is to study the stability of two ships in close proximity towing. Unlike previous studies in the past, the lateral dynamics of both ships are included in the formulation. The equations of motion ...
