Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Progress in Maritime Technology and Engineering collects the papers presented at the 4th International Conference on Maritime Technology and Engineering (MARTECH 2018, Lisbon, Portugal, 7–9 May 2018). This conference has evolved from a series of biannual national conferences in Portugal, and has developed into an international event, reflecting the internationalization of the maritime sector and its activities. MARTECH 2018 is the fourth in this new series of biannual conferences. Progress in Maritime Technology and Engineering contains about 80 contributions from authors from all parts of the world, which were reviewed by an International Scientific Committee. The book is divided into the subject areas below: - Port performance - Maritime transportation and economics - Big data in shipping - Intelligent ship navigation - Ship performance - Computational fluid dynamics - Resistance and propulsion - Ship propulsion - Dynamics and control - Marine pollution and sustainability - Ship design - Ship structures - Structures in composite materials - Shipyard technology - Coating and corrosion - Maintenance - Risk analysis - Offshore and subsea technology - Ship motion - Ships in transit - Wave-structure interaction - Wave and wind energy - Waves Progress in Maritime Technology and Engineering will be of interest to academics and professionals involved in the above mentioned areas.
Download or read book Ship Resistance and Propulsion written by Anthony F. Molland and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-08-17 with total page 627 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second edition provides a comprehensive and scientific approach to evaluating ship resistance and propulsion. Written by experts in the field, it includes the latest developments in CFD, experimental techniques and guidance for the practical estimation of ship propulsive power. It addresses improvements in energy efficiency and reduced emissions, and the introduction of the Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI). Descriptions have now been included of pump jets, rim driven propulsors, shape adaptive foils, propeller noise and dynamic positioning. Trial procedures have been updated, and preliminary estimates of power for hydrofoil craft, submarines and AUVs are incorporated. Standard series data for hull resistance and propeller performance are included, enabling practitioners to make ship power predictions based on material and data within the book. Numerous fully worked examples illustrate applications for most ship and small craft types, making this book ideal for practising engineers, naval architects, marine engineers and undergraduate and postgraduate students.

Download or read book Hydronautics written by Herman Sheets and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hydronautics focuses on the major scientific and engineering disciplines related to ocean technology. This book provides information pertinent to the development of offshore oil production. Organized into seven chapters, this book starts with an overview of the basic description of the primary ocean resources, and then proceeds with a discussion of the ocean environment, which is the major field of the various branches of oceanology. This text then explores the technical detail on marine vehicle systems, including the state-of the-art on ships, platforms, submersibles. Other chapters discuss the ocean dynamics, including waves, current, and coastal waters. This book explores as well the discipline of navigation, underwater navigation, and the general characteristics of navigation systems. The final chapter deals with policy planning, with emphasis on the basic principles needed for policy decisions and the role of government in this field. This book is a valuable resource for marine scientists and marine engineers.

Download or read book Theoretical Analysis of Cycloidal Propellers written by Michael R. Mendenhall and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A theoretical analysis of a cycloidal propeller was developed which accounts for the detailed structure of the wakes shed from the blades and their influence on blade loading. The analysis was developed for the two-dimensional case (infinite blade aspect ratio) and programmed for a digital computer. Calculations made over a range of pitch and advance ratio values indicate the wake to have a major influence in reducing the blade loading at low advance ratios. High local blade loadings occur when a blade passes near a wake vortex, and blade stall must be accounted for in the method. Comparisons with model propeller data indicate that the theory predicts the proper trends and levels of thrust, side force, and torque over a wide range of advance ratio and pitch. (Author).
