Sensitivity and trade-off analysis of wave making resistance and stability of small water plane area trimarans
(Monterey, CaliforniaNaval Postgraduate School, 2007-09)
Recent concept ship designs have called for a vessel with the capability to lift and transport multiple medium displacement combatant boats, approximately 40 to 100 tons, at high speeds over thousands of nautical miles. ...
Investigation of superplastic behavior in FSP 5083 aluminum alloy
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2007-06)
Computational fluid dynamic model of steam ingestion into a transonic compressor
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2009-06)
The U.S. Navy's concern with steam-induced jet engine stall has become more pertinent with the introduction of the F-35C. During take offs on aircraft carriers, steam from aging catapult systems can potentially seep onto ...
Numerical study of effects of fluid-structure interaction on dynamic responses of composite plates
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2009-09)
Composite materials are seeing increased use in structural applications because of their various benefits. When composite structures are employed in a water environment, their dynamic responses are greatly affected by the ...
Passive regeneration: long-term effects on ash characteristics and diesel particulate filter performance
(Monterey California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2013-06)
Diesel particulate filters (DPF) have seen widespread growth as an effective means for meeting increasingly rigorous particle emissions regulations. There is growing interest to exploit passive regeneration of DPFs to ...
CFD analysis of a pentahulled, air entrapment, high speed planing [sic] planning vessel
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2008-03)
The objective of this thesis is to analyze the hydrodynamic properties of a specialized pentahulled, air entrapment, and high-speed planning vessel. Due to the unique features of this hull, a multi-layered approach based ...
Friction stir processing of nickel aluminum propeller bronze in comparison to fusion welds
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2005-06)
Friction Stir Processing (FSP) is currently being considered for use in manufacture of the Navy's NiAl bronze propellers. Incorporating this technology may improve service performance and enable reduction of manufacturing ...
Effect of span variation on the performance of a cross flow fan
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2006-06)
Over the past few decades, advances in aeronautic and control technologies have established a new vision for future air transportation systems. NASA has initiated the motion with several programs supporting the "highway ...
Obstacle avoidance control in the vertical plane for the REMUS autonomous underwater vehicle
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2003-09)
As the Navy continues its development of unmanned underwater vehicles, the need for total autonomous missions grows. Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUV) allow for advances in mine warfare, harbor reconnaissance, undersea ...
