Abstract:

The effects of wave direction, frequency and the waterline shape of floating structures on the wave mean drift force formula have been considered separately by several authors but there isn't a general formula to take into account all of these effects. In this regard, Faltinsen’s wave drift force formula has been modified by adding finite draft coefficient. The results obtained from this formula which is dependent on wave frequencies, has been compared with Helvacioglu’s experiments favorably in high wave frequencies. Moreover, the influence of the current on the wave mean drift force has been taken into account by considering the current coefficient derived from the ship added resistance formula. In addition, the formula for the calculation of the wave drift damping has been extended to cover high wave frequencies as well as low wave frequencies. The results compared with asymptotic formula showed good agreement in the high frequency band.

A RESEARCH NOTE ON THE SECOND ORDER DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION

Let U(t, ) be solution of the Dirichlet problem y''+( t-q(t))y= 0 - 1 t l y(-l)= 0 = y(x), with variabIe t on (-1, x), for fixed x, which satisfies the initial condition U(-1, )=0 , (-1, )=1. In this paper, the asymptotic representation of the corresponding eigenfunctions of the eigen values has been investigated . Furthermore, the leading term of the asymptotic formula for ...

An Autozeroing Floating-gate Second-order Section

We introduce the Autozeroing Floating-Gate Second-Order Section. We built this second-order lter where the corner frequency and Q are electronically tunable based on a classic lter topology and principles of OTA ampli ers. We built this second-order lter using three AFGAs| our oating-gate ampli er that sets its operating point by the interaction of hot-electron injection and electron-tunneling....

Inspired by the chemical applications of higher-order connectivity index (or Randic index), we consider here the higher-order first Zagreb index of a molecular graph. In this paper, we study the linear regression analysis of the second order first Zagreb index with the entropy and acentric factor of an octane isomers. The linear model, based on the second order first Zag...

Second order sensitivity analysis for shape optimization of continuum structures

This study focuses on the optimization of the plane structure. Sequential quadratic programming (SQP) will be utilized, which is one of the most efficient methods for solving nonlinearly constrained optimization problems. A new formulation for the second order sensitivity analysis of the two-dimensional finite element will be developed. All the second order required derivatives will be calculat...
