A Low - Cost Wave - Sediment - Towing Tank
The design and construction of a small wave-sediment tank, built and instrumented for under $10,000, is described. The tank is equipped with a piston-type wavemaker, capable of producing both small-amplitude and solitary waves. The middle section of the tank contains a sediment bed appropriate for wave-soil-structure interaction and sediment transport experiments. Wave energy is absorbed by a g...
متن کاملA Circular Towing Tank for Calibrating Plankton - net Flowmeters
A specially designed circular towing tan~ was developed at the Northeast Fisheries Center (NEFC) for calibrating plankton-net flowmeters . ashore in order to provide more accurate volume estimates and to save valuable shipboard time. Results of a cross-calibration experiment with a flume in use at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) demonstrated that calibration factors produced by ...
متن کاملDesign and construction of 6-component balance dynamometer for measurement of the forces, moments andmotions of ship models in the towing tank
During design spiral of a merchant ship or a naval vessel, it is important to perform towing tank tests in order to measure its performance either in calm water maneuvers or in waves for seakeeping performance. Also, to optimize a hydrodynamic design, towing tank tests are advantageous.This article presents the results of an applied research project. The objective of this project is to design a...
متن کاملRadiation Pattern Analysis of Inverted-F Antenna Mounted on the Side Wall of a Long Cylinder
An analytical technique is proposed for estimation of the radiation pattern of inverted-F antenna (IFA) which is mounted on the side wall of a long cylinder. The method can be applied to describe the IFA radiation in a lot of practical cases. It is indicated that this radiation pattern is a combination of radiation patterns of a horizontal and a vertical small radiator, near the cylinder with a...
متن کاملEffects of Ship Motion on Ship Maneuvering in Waves
Ship maneuvering performance is typically predicted in calm water conditions. This provides very valuable information at the initial ship design stage. However, since the ship always sails in waves, the maneuvering performance of the ship in seaway may be significantly different from calm water condition. Therefore, if the effect of waves and the corresponding motion responses can be included i...
