This book was released on 1978 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surface Effect Vehicles (SEV's) with weights up to 200 tons capable of speeds to 80 knots over water and land are in service. Considerably larger vehicles are under development. However, the life of the fabric-reinforced, elastomer-coated skirt/seal systems on current vehicles is short; it is anticipated that even shorter skirt lives will be encountered on the larger, higher speed vehicles under development, limiting the military potential and commercial practicality of the SEV mode of transportation. The skirts are subjected to a salt water, sand, marsh, or ice environment coupled with the dynamic loading induced by high speed operation. Their failure is a very complex, interdisciplinary problem that is not completely understood. Three major modes of failure are evident: delamination; abrasion; and tearing. These may occur separately or in combination, depending on: vehicle size and design; vehicle mission; skirt and seal design; and skirt and seal material. The current status of the development of skirts and seals is reviewed. Modes of failure, loading conditions, and effects of environments, materials selection, methods of manufacture, system fabrication, and test methods are discussed. A series of recommendations is made that, if followed, should lead to the development of more durable skirts and seals.

Download or read book Hydrodynamics of High Speed Marine Vehicles written by Odd M. Faltinsen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-01-09 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hydrodynamics of High-Speed Marine Vehicles, first published in 2006, discusses the three main categories of high-speed marine vehicles - vessels supported by submerged hulls, air cushions or foils. The wave environment, resistance, propulsion, seakeeping, sea loads and manoeuvring are extensively covered based on rational and simplified methods. Links to automatic control and structural mechanics are emphasized. A detailed description of waterjet propulsion is given and the effect of water depth on wash, resistance, sinkage and trim is discussed. Chapter topics include resistance and wash; slamming; air cushion-supported vessels, including a detailed discussion of wave-excited resonant oscillations in air cushion; and hydrofoil vessels. The book contains numerous illustrations, examples and exercises.
